For the second year in a row, the international not-for-profit CDP has included Nestlé in its supplier engagement leader board. The Global Supply Chain report is being released today.
Nestlé is one of only 58 companies included out of a total of 3,300 assessed, putting it among just 2% awarded a place.
These leaders – which also include Bank of America, BT Group, Panasonic, Rolls Royce, Société Générale, Tokyo Gas Co. and Unilever – are recognized for their work with suppliers to reduce emissions and lower environmental risks in the supply chain.
Nestlé has committed to showing climate change leadership as part of its goal of enhancing quality of life and contributing to a healthier future.
About the CDP Global Supply Chain Report 2018
In 2017, CDP collected data on behalf of 99 Supply Chain members from: 4,858 companies responding to the climate change questions within the CDP supply chain questionnaire; 1,452 responding to the water questions; and 88 responding to the forests questions.
This represents data across 51 different industry groups/segments and 86 different countries. The total number of companies invited to participate were 9,139 for the climate questionnaire, 4,850 for the water questionnaire, and 244 for the forests questionnaire.
* The report includes a global analysis, as well as a market-by-market comparison of eight major economies. The economies of Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, the UK and the USA were identified as the major markets most relevant to the purchasing organizations working with CDP, and as where CDP had sufficient data.
