By integrating environmental responsibility, social equity and governance accountability, ESG is essential for organisations to embrace to drive long-term resilience in our pursuit of a better tomorrow.
Not only does crafting a strong ESG framework allow for organisations to meet regulatory demands and attract investors, it also allows them to gain a competitive advantage by ensuring that societal and environmental goals are aligned with profitability.
Chongqing Brewery (CBC) – Carlsberg’s company in China – has achieved an ‘AA’ MSCI ESG rating, one of the most recognised ESG ratings globally.
This achievement comes as a result of the brewery’s consistent dedication to ESG initiatives like responsible sourcing, water conservation, carbon reduction and packaging innovation.
CBC is now one of the two highest-rated companies out of over 120 listed companies in the category, making it a pioneer in the food and drinks industry.
