Key Statements

"I think that will be more into the low impact than into the high impact for carbon footprint and everything else. Nevertheless, very important. And because of that, we've been establishing goals for many, many years. We are already in our third set of goals that are measurable goals. So we don't have like ambitions only we have science based reduction in carbon emissions."

"One thing that I'm very excited about for this year as a goal that's more a year basis is the number of breweries where we can be carbon neutral. We had last year. Our first one in China in Wuhan, is a very big brewery that's 100% carbon neutral, followed by two here in Brazil, where I am now visiting. So we have two of our facilities that are 100% carbon free. And I would like to advance the number of facilities. Instead of having partial goals being achieved, I would like to have more brewers where we are 100% carbon free. "

"That's why I announced when I started the business, the promotion of Asgy Barcelona's and the appointment to be our Chief Sustainability Officer, because we work around the table and sustainability needs to be at the table. So that's why ESG was appointed to be our Chief Sustainability Officer. And she's part of each and every conversation that we have in business, in strategy, and in the financials that we have around the business. So it's being added into the strategy."
