Our drinks depend on a sustainable supply of high-quality agricultural ingredients – including sugar beet and sugarcane, fruit juices and malt. We also believe that sustainable agriculture offers solutions to interrelated issues such as water security, climate resilience or greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
This is why, for ECCBC, as in many parts of the world, farming and agriculture are significantly important. As a key consumer of these ingredients, we have a responsibility to hold ourselves and our suppliers to the highest sourcing standards. For this reason, as part of our ESG Impact Strategy, we have committed to making responsible decisions for our communities and our planet by supporting sustainable business across our value chain, from the farm to the table. To do so, we will work to achieve our main goal for 2030 through 2 different action plans.
