Enriching communities, caring for the environment and ensuring we act in a sustainable and ethical manner is central to our ethos. In 2018 we introduced a new set of ambitious sustainability targets and have embarked on a World Without Waste journey with The Coca‑Cola Company. We also continue to reduce emissions from our operations and focus our minds and actions on water use and stewardship, ingredient sourcing, nutrition, wellness and wellbeing within our organisation and our communities.
