Comerso measures and boosts CSR

As regards the future, it is not a case of anticipating this
but of making it possible.

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry – Writer (1900-1944)

SDGs and CSR: opportunities for transformation and innovation

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN’s horizontal sustainable development programme define 17 priorities to be achieved by 2030. For economic players, these SDGs constitute an opportunity for transformation and innovation.

Comerso’s work has a direct impact on 7 of those SDGs.

CSR (Corporate Social or Societal Responsibility) invites us to abide by the principles of sustainable development: a viable economy and the social and environmental integration of business goals. CSR is at the core of our business and we have a vocation to boost that of our customers and partners.

Combating waste: a global emergency

Waste occurs at every stage: production, processing, distribution and consumption – and it affects every business sector.

At the global level:
Food waste presents a triple challenge:
– environmental: combating waste has been identified as the no.3 priority on a global scale in responding to the climate emergency
– economic: 1/3 of global food output is thrown away or wasted according to the FAO
– social: about 1/6 of people worldwide are still malnourished*

In France:
– 10 millions tonnes and 20 billion meals of lost and wasted produce for human food annually
– 630 m€ of non-food goods destroyed annually

This emergency provides Comerso’s raison d’être to supply specific, efficient solutions so as to act now, immediately!
