We know that we will only be successful in the future if we take an even closer look at the impact of our business model on the environment and society - and vice versa. At the same time, we are mindful of our commitment not to do business at the expense of future generations. Today we have published our second - still voluntary - report on environmental, social and governance issues. The growing focus on sustainability, which has increasingly affected all industries in recent years, is also changing the consumer behavior of coffee drinkers. For many roasters this means rethinking processes and taking bold steps. In our second sustainability report, we explain how we are helping coffee processors around the world to organize their production in a sustainable and resource-conserving way with the help of pioneering environmental technologies and intelligent sensor systems - for an industry that takes responsibility and sets new standards.

Sign up at: https://lnkd.in/eKMriGfb Over the last decade, sustainability has become a pervasive topic across all industries. As companies seek ways to improve their sustainability stories and reduce their impact on the environment several opportunities have presented themselves within each industry. The packaging industry has been on the leading edge of the sustainability trend for years, whether through product development, sustainability strategies, or responsible sourcing methodologies. Being a product-based industry derived from base commodities at its core has provided businesses with tangible methods to reduce their environmental impact within their packaging portfolios. In this webinar, we will explore some of the more successful strategies we have employed for our clients as they pertain to products and strategies, as well as offer a glimpse into a few of the more recent tactics we have deployed for our own organization’s sustainability journey.

Sustainability is no longer just a trend - it’s a core value that increasingly shapes purchasing decisions. More consumers, especially Millennials and Gen Z, are actively seeking out eco-friendly brands that demonstrate real commitment to protecting the environment. They want to know that the companies they support are taking responsibility for their impact on the planet, whether that’s through reducing waste, cutting carbon emissions, or ensuring ethical sourcing. For brands, this shift presents a unique opportunity. By embracing and promoting sustainable practices, businesses can connect with eco-conscious consumers on a deeper level. From using recyclable packaging to implementing green supply chains and reducing water usage, every small step helps build a positive brand image that resonates with today’s environmentally aware audience. However, sustainability isn’t just about ticking boxes - it’s about genuine commitment. Consumers are increasingly sceptical of “greenwashing” (making false or exaggerated environmental claims), so transparency is key. Clearly communicating what steps are being taken, why they matter, and how they benefit the planet will go a long way in building trust and loyalty.

Our latest research confirms in stark terms the scale of the sustainability challenge for businesses in the consumer goods, food & retail sector. As noted by Jean-Pierre Douglas-Henry, as sustainability and business performance become increasingly connected, organisations must look at sustainability through a strategic lens, not a compliance one. As much as there are significant opportunities, there is also risk, and the c-suite needs to ensure their sustainability strategy and commitments are matched by what the organisation says and does.
