We at HEXA Food are happy to announce that we have taken the initiative to embark on the ESG Sustainability Journey. This initiative is a step that we have committed to ensure that our company tries our best to commit to sustainability.

 

What is ESG? And how does it relate to sustainability?

ESG stands for the Environmental, Social and Governance factors that are taken in consideration to evaluate the sustainability of both the corporate world and countries on how advanced they are in terms of sustainability.

 

 

By joining the UN Global Compact Network Malaysia & Brunei (UNGCMYB), we have committed to a principle based approach to deliver sustainable development goals.

There are 10 principles of the UN Global impact which can be categorized into 4 main categories which are human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption. Based on the 10 principles, there are 17 sustainable development goals that we aim to achieve as many as we can a step at a time.
