Apetit’s operations are built around domestic sourcing and production, sustainable food solutions and plant-based ingredients as well as responsible operating methods. Responsibility runs through the entire value chain of our operations, from the well-being of the environment to human well-being. This is reflected in our mission: Good food for everyone. Locally. At Apetit, responsibility is part of the company’s strategy.
Apetit has determined the material impacts, risks and opportunities of its operations based on a double materiality analysis pursuant to the ESRS standard. The aim of the assessment was to identify the material issues on which Apetit’s sustainability work and reporting should focus.
• Climate and energy
• Biodiversity
• Our own workforce
• Workers in the value chain
The results of the materiality assessment define Apetit’s key sustainability focus areas and guide the development of the company’s sustainability work. The assessment confirmed the most important themes identified in the previous evaluation, which remained unchanged also based on this review. By contrast, some topics—such as waste generated in production, packaging materials, and material efficiency—did not exceed the materiality threshold. Nevertheless, managing these topics and reducing their related impacts remains an important part of Apetit’s operations.
Corporate responsibility is managed by the corporate management as part of its normal operations. The development of corporate responsibility work and the sustainability targets are guided by the Group Sustainability Director. One of the focus areas of the updated strategy is a responsible value chain. In the business segments the sustainability work is managed by the segment directors as part of daily business. The Apetit Group’s corporate responsibility work is developed and followed by the corporate responsibility steering group. The personnel have the opportunity to influence corporate responsibility issues on a regular basis, for example, through internal collaboration meetings, initiative channels and daily operations.
