Episode notes

G is something that kind of goes right through the company. For example, i think you have targets as well for your management as good question. We when we develop the tenty third strategy, we were also developing our business strategy. And in evergreen, actually, one of the four focus area of the balanced growth strategy is a sustainability of responsibility. It has just been approved by the annual share of this meeting, where we set oka 25 % of the long terma remuneration package for senior managers should be related to sustain ability and studity.

In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we sit down with Jan-Willem Vosmeer, Global Manager of Sustainable Development and Stakeholder Engagement at The Heineken Company. He talks about how the brewer is working with suppliers to reduce emissions, the challenges of working in a water-intensive industry, and how to make agriculture sustainable.

But he says Heineken is focused on more than just environmental issues. It seeks to embed sustainability throughout its entire business, including through net zero goals, addressing responsible drinking and working to further diversity, equity and inclusion.

"There's a lot of focus on the environmental part, but for me, it's really always a holistic agenda," Jan-Willem says. "So the S of social is as important as the environmental part, and they’re also interlinked."
