Stakeholder dialogue
In dialogue with our stakeholders—shareholders, employees, consumers, suppliers, decision-makers, scientists, and non-governmental organisations—we can identify and address the trends that shape consumer behaviour.
Environmental concerns make, for instance, consumers increasingly demand sustainable solutions. Thus, we supply sustainable and healthy plant-based products, helping people to consume in ways that are better for the individual and the planet. We also provide information and resources to promote sustainability work in countries where we operate and beyond.
No one can solve today’s global challenges single-handedly; they require cooperation between stakeholders. We take responsibility as part of a worldwide community and seek common solutions.
We work together with various organisations to improve the well-being of humans and the planet. Together with our stakeholders and partners, we can make a greater impact. We have identified our most important stakeholder groups and outlined several ways to engage.
