illustrating how our sustainability work comes alive.
Further, we regularly report progress on the implementation
of our Responsible Sourcing Policy or our
responsible sourcing programs in AAK’s progress
reports on sustainable palm and shea. Reports and
policies are publicly available at AAK’s website.
The UN Global Compact encourages companies to
engage in partnerships to tackle global challenges more
effectively. AAK embraces the view that in partnerships
you combine competencies and are likely to accomplish
more than you could do on your own. Partnering with
other businesses, NGOs and governmental agencies
are ways to accomplish more. For example, AAK is
participating in or partnering with RSPO (Roundtable on
Sustainable Palm Oil), GSA (Global Shea Alliance) and
Proforest.
Monitoring and dialogue
Our sustainability approach is not static, but adjusted to
input from stakeholders such as customers, investors,
NGOs and employees. We monitor new and upcoming
legislation, follow trends in our communities, and
benchmark
our sustainability practices against those
of retailers, customers and competitors.
AAK sustainable growth
Our overall objective is to grow AAK sustainably and
progress within sustainability as a whole.
