1. FERRERO’S SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
PEOPLEAt Ferrero, consumer focus isn’t just an abstract
value, it’s something we put into practice every day,
based on a sense of responsibility that goes beyond
commercial goals. This responsibility is made into
reality through our nutritional strategy, on-going
innovation, the quality and freshness of our products,
food safety and responsible and transparent
communication. In addition, we show a constant
interest in the lives of our current and former
employees as well as the people living in the
communities in which we operate.
This commitment is demonstrated by the activities
of the Ferrero Foundation and the Michele Ferrero
Entrepreneurial Project, active in Africa and Asia. Our
Group also continues its commitment to the
promotion of active lifestyles by addressing young
people and their families through the global Kinder +
Sport Joy of Moving program.
PLANETMonitoring and improving the impact of our
activities throughout the entire supply chain is a
priority for our Group, which we address by
ensuring that our main raw materials are
responsibly sourced.
In addition, we are committed to production that
respects the environment, by making use of the
best technologies available, ensuring that our use
of energy, materials and natural resources is
efficient and by consuming water resources
responsibly and reasonably. Acknowledging this
responsibility, we are strongly committed to
minimizing our environmental impact, from raw
materials to production plants and logistics, along
the entire valuechain.
Ferrero has always been
dedicated to taking on solid
commitments and paying the
utmost attention to People and the
Planet, giving these precedence
over its financial goals. This
tendency is inherent to the
Company’s DNA and is
symbolically represented in a letter
that Michele Ferrero sent to
company employees in 1957,
when he took the leadership.
