Avara Foods has published its third responsible business report and its first under their new responsible business brand, For Good.

The report is the first full introduction of For Good, which helps to define what responsible business means, the importance of viewing individual issues holistically, and confirms its permanence at the heart of the business.

Acting responsibly

CEO of Avara Foods Andy Dawkins, commented: “Acting responsibly is one of the cornerstones of our business and has become the everyday expectation of the team at Avara.

In every aspect of our business, we want to be clear about what we stand for and what anyone working with, or for, us can expect.

“These are the origins of For Good. As well as clearly setting out what we stand for, I hope For Good makes one other point crystal clear: for us, acting responsibly is a long-term commitment”.

Andrew Brodie, people and communications Director at Avara, said:

“That we’ve been able to make so much progress, against such a challenging backdrop, says everything about our culture and the commitment of our people.

Whether it’s our commitment to science-based targets, a successful Kickstart programme, welfare trials or innovative, reduced-plastic packaging, we’ve set a clear marker that acting responsibly is part of our business, whatever the weather.

“Of course, there’s still more that we can, and want, to do, but this report shows that we’re making good progress and that, whatever goals we set, we’re going to achieve them.”
