PURCHASE, N.Y., June 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- PepsiCo, Inc. (NASDAQ: PEP) today published its 2019 Sustainability Report, highlighting progress toward its sustainability goals and reaffirming the company's agenda to help build a more sustainable food system.
"Today's global environmental and societal pressures are bringing into sharp focus the need for systemic change," said Ramon Laguarta, PepsiCo's CEO and Chairman. "These challenges not only require deeper commitment from the private sector, they also require demonstrated and sustained action. As a global food and beverage leader, we have a responsibility to use our scale and influence to help tackle long-term challenges, including addressing the threats to our food system which have been further strained by the unfolding pandemic. We're making significant progress that I'm very proud of. We know it will take even more, however. From how we grow food and make products, to inspiring positive change – we are committed to help build a better future for people and the planet."
The 2019 Sustainability Report shares progress across the priority areas where PepsiCo believes it can have the most meaningful impact: agriculture, water, climate, packaging, products, and people. Highlights include:
"As we look to the decade ahead, global efforts to mitigate climate change and support a more sustainable and inclusive future are more crucial than ever," said Simon Lowden, PepsiCo's Chief Sustainability Officer. "From providing access to safe water in underserved communities, to working with farmers to grow crops more sustainably, to innovating around packaging, we remain focused on our long-term agenda. It will require agility, collective action and collaboration, and as we think about our approach, we're determined to embrace an important lesson of COVID-19: The world can mobilize quickly when working together toward a shared goal. We know building a more resilient food system is possible, and we'll continue working with partners around the world to catalyze change for a better tomorrow."
The all-digital and interactive 2019 Sustainability Report is accompanied by a summary, highlighting progress against goals, and other downloadable resources. Detailed information about the company's current policies and performance related to specific key issues can be found in a dedicated ESG topics section of the company's website.
