Sustainability Report 2019

Community We support the sustainable, long-term development of the local communities in which we operate. Why it matters We are a major employer in many of the areas where we operate and have a responsibility for the health, prosperity and sustainability of those communities. We also play a key role in feeding people and animals around the world and ensuring the security of the food supply is vital. Our approach We contribute to the communities where we operate – by employing people, purchasing commodities, goods and services, paying taxes – and through continued investment in our infrastructure. This contributes to the success of local businesses and economies. Our supply chains are considered essential services to transport food and feed products for communities around the world. We operate reliably and efficiently to provide timely delivery of products and maintain our high standards of quality and food safety to meet the needs of customers. Our operations also bring social benefits to local communities through donations, sponsorship and fundraising activities and the expertise and support of our staff who volunteer their time. We support many local initiatives and projects that contribute positively to the wellbeing of the local communities surrounding our operations and offices. We aim to deal openly, transparently and inclusively with our communities and stakeholders, listening to and working with anyone impacted by our operations. Our performance in 2019 We have continued to operate as a responsible corporate citizen and worked constructively with a range of stakeholders at a local, regional, national and international level. We have supported many initiatives in the communities where we operate. Across the business, total reported community investment was US$2.9 million, most of which supports education and health initiatives with each region having discretion to contribute to activities in their local communities. This contribution may include donations, sponsorships, donation of goods and in-kind support. The impacts of our community activities are measured locally.
