Responsible growth pays off for everyone.

Profitability and sustainability are not mutually exclusive. Quite the opposite: We are strongly convinced that our sustainability strategy is an important investment in the future and foundation of our value creation platform. We have reviewed and realigned all processes in the company both administrative and production-related to ensure that they are environmentally friendly, to name one example. This results in synergy effects for all brands that contribute to more resource-efficient production on a large scale.

Sustainable digital growth too

We drive forward the digital transformation to continue to operate successfully on the global market economically and ecologically and to play a significant role in shaping it. In this way, we connect wholesale and retail to our digital infrastructure and continue to expand the internationalisation of our subsidiary companies based on e-commerce solutions, both in the B2B and B2C sectors.

 

Our plan of the big picture

Our sustainability strategy includes not only economic but also ecological and social changes. Digitisation and ecological efficiency flow into sustainable, responsible growth that pays off for everyone: the environment, employees, our customers and partners, and even our stakeholders around the world.
