Our Groups recipe for eco-efficiency – Sustainability Excellence
Our commitment to sustainability is woven into all areas of our business. We have a clear strategy that is focusing on minimising our carbon footprint, the amount of waste generated and conserving resources we consume. Utilising our Finsbury 1 Excellence program we are continually driving improvements across our complete value chain to ensure improvement in Sustainability performance – everyone within the Group has a part to play.
Carbon & Energy Reduction – We are dedicated to reducing our environmental impact on local, national and international issues relating to sustainability. While we don’t have externally verified Carbon Reduction Targets, we have internal carbon reduction targets set against a 2016 baseline that were established using the Science Base Targeting Initiative (SBTi) methodology.
Waste Management – We are focused on reducing the amount of waste we create and ensuring that our waste is diverted from landfill where possible. We’re proud to say that we are a ‘zero waste to landfill’ Group. We are continuously seeking to review waste streams at our bakeries and looking to reuse waste where appropriate – this has resulted in partnerships developing with food redistribution charities such as ‘That Bread and Butter Thing’ which sees some of our waste being used in local foodbanks.
