AAK receives gold rating by EcoVadis
EcoVadis has awarded AAK with a gold rating for three
years in a row. Ecovadis is a collaborative platform that
enables companies to monitor the sustainable performance
of their suppliers.
AAK was assessed on environment, labor practices,
fair business practices, and sustainable procurement. All
answers provided for the assessment were supported
by documents such as published reports, procedures,
checklists, and other evidence of compliance. This
enables us to focus on the AAK management system
and how we can make further improvements.
Award for Kolo Nafaso as Sustainability Pioneer
In November 2019, AAK was presented with a
Sustainable Beauty Award and named winner in the
Sustainability Pioneer Category thanks to our direct
sourcing program Kolo Nafaso in West Africa.
The program has grown exponentially since it
was founded ten years ago and the award is an
acknow ledgement of all the hard work and dedication
that the AAK teams have made on the ground in West
Africa.
Consequently, cosmetic manufacturers have been
able to increase the social value of their brands.
