Congratulations to the team at Mars for delivering over £88 million in social value across three of its UK CPG businesses! Through providing the business with a holistic understanding of its social, environmental and economic impact this marks a milestone moment in better understanding the value Mars creates beyond its direct operations. As one of the first companies in the world to report beyond financial capital through our Integrated Impact Statement (which we started back in 2017) ofi also measures the impact of our actions on the ground and assesses how these actions impact natural and social capital – aspects which are not covered in conventional financial statements. In doing so, we ensure our sustainability and finance teams speak a common numerical language that everyone can understand, evaluate, and articulate. #sustainablebusiness #socialimpact #ESG
