Looking to the future

Continuing to align our efforts with the B Corporation model, the year ahead is about building momentum, leading the change we want to see in the world.

The outbreak of coronavirus has made changes to our world that we never could have anticipated. But the importance of togetherness and the fundamentals that B Corporation promotes will be more important than ever before.

As our business recovers, we carry forward our plans to expand our socially responsible activity, continuing to embed an ethos of responsibility in everything we do.

We’ve been integrating renewable sources of energy into our business for a number of years but we don’t rest on our laurels. Looking to the future, we’re pinning down the next steps to make our business greener.

We aim to strengthen our efforts to reduce waste and identify further opportunities to make energy savings.

B Corp members around the world have pledged to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, and we have high hopes of Macphie achieving this sooner.

For the first time, we plan on looking further than our own sites, but how we can support our customers in their efforts to protect the environment.

In the year ahead, we plan to launch our new brand, brining a fresher look to market. But it’s no superficial makeover as we move our best-selling product line to bio-based packaging, supporting our supplier as it works towards entirely plastic-free options.

In our communities, we’ll continue to develop our people and those that will follow them. In the year ahead, we plan to deliver more opportunities for the future workforce, providing practical experience to kickstart sustainable careers.

We’ve been reporting on our CSR performance since 2017 and will continue to share our progress. We certainly have a lot to celebrate.

Our connections to the people and places around us run deep and we recognise that it’s not a case of what business can do to help, but what we must do.
