Consumers, governments and investors are becoming increasingly concerned about the provenance of food, along with the environmental and social footprint of supply chains. Businesses are therefore seeking ways to obtain further visibility of their suppliers ambitions and progress relating to ESG matters.
What is the ESG assessment?
Developed in partnership with global sustainability consultancy Anthesis, the standardised assessment covers all aspects of ESG, using the answers provided to compile an individual, actionable scorecard and levels of maturity linking to strategy, execution and results.
Why complete the ESG assessment?
With growing investor and consumer demands for sustainable, ethically-sourced products, along with evolving regulations addressing climate change, businesses can no longer shy away from the ESG performance of its operations.
By completing the assessment, your organisation can see where it is leading the charge or falling behind against industry peers.
