Welcome to the EABL Sustainability Report 2024

We are proud to present the fourth edition of our EABL Sustainability Report, reflecting our continued commitment to transparency, accountability, and positive impact on society. This report highlights the actions we’ve taken, the challenges faced, and the progress achieved as we work towards creating lasting value for all our stakeholders.

We, therefore, present our approach and performance on topics most material to our business and stakeholders. Through expert voices, stakeholder testimonials and performance data, EABL is committed to providing an accurate, timely and reliable analysis of our performance against our Sustainability Strategy, ‘ ‘Spirit of Progress’’ which has three pillars: Promote Positive Drinking, Champion Inclusion and Diversity, and Pioneer Grain to Glass Sustainability.

We have opted to take a long term view of our Sustainability Strategy and will no longer be refering to ‘Society 2030’.

This year’s report is themed ‘Championing Inclusion and Diversity’, built on our pillar of ‘Champion Inclusion and Diversity’. Our mission is to create the most inclusive and diverse environment that ensures all our people thrive, supported by market leading policies and practices; while also removing barriers and having a positive impact on our partners, suppliers and communities. The report will, therefore, provide a detailed overview of our sustainability agenda in the East African region and highlight our actions towards embracing inclusion and diversity in the communities where we live, work, source and sell.

The report has been prepared in accordance with the GRI 2021 Standards and is also responsive to the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) ESG Disclosures Guidance Manual (2021).
