For ETG, sustainability is a way of doing business. A way that is not only a moral imperative but makes good business sense. Our ambition is to fully transform into a net positive business. We realise that this is a journey with challenges and conflicting objectives and that this ambition can only be realised through collaboration with others.

To guide us on our net-positive journey, we have developed a sustainability framework. The framework sets out three areas where we want to achieve net positive impact – nature, people and business – and the twelve criteria by which we will measure our progress.
As a company, we are committed to working
in ways that are mindful of our impacts on
nature, preserve our Earth’s ecosystems
and restore them to a better state where
possible.
Our ambition is to have a positive impact on
all people whose lives we touch, no matter
how large or small their contribution to our
business.
We envisage a business that is lean, agile
and efficient while contributing to a more
connected, interdependent and
value-driven culture.
ETG’s business includes a global network of factories, warehouses, depots and offices, as well as logistics and trade operations. We are committed to ensuring that the environmental impacts of our operations and supply chains are avoided or mitigated.
ETG is committed to aligning all its business activities with the below 1.5°C global warming target. We are also looking at how to adapt our business to the changing climate and how to strengthen the resilience of our supply chains.
Through our business we interact with millions of smallholder farmers worldwide. ETG aims to support them in improving their farming so they can achieve reliable decent incomes, work safely and take care of the environment on which they rely.
ETG’s business is intertwined with nature, both depending on it and influencing it. We are committed to contributing to the global nature positive goal, with no net losses now and making a net positive contribution by 2030.
ETG respects the dignity and rights of all humans and is committed to safeguarding human rights at work and the health and safety of every individual in its supply chains.
We are committed to treating every individual in our supply chains with equal respect, reward based on merit and creating a diverse and inclusive workspace for our people, free from discrimination, intimidation or harassment.
ETG provides income to tens of thousands of people, including farmers and workers, many of whom are at the bottom of the income pyramid. ETG is working towards paying for their goods and services at a level that is in line with a decent living income.
ETG is committed to building and maintaining good relationships with the communities it operates in and to contributing to community development where possible.
ETG is committed to fulfilling its commercial, fiscal, legal, social and environmental obligations, acting transparently in the spirit of fair competition and making philanthropic contributions.
As ETG grows, we must do so within planetary limits and respect the dignity and rights of all the people we collaborate with. Where we are involved in sectors that are not yet fully aligned with this imperative, we will develop sustainability transition strategies.
Entrepreneurship and innovation are the centrepiece of ETG’s purpose and values. We are committed to adapting and growing responsibly as a diversified enterprise, creating a sustainable impact for all our stakeholders.
ETG is a leader in many of sectors it is involved in. We embrace our responsibility to be an example and to motivate our suppliers, business partners and peers to adopt good business practices and work in sustainable ways.
