Other Information
Achieving real and lasting positive change is only
possible through the collective effort of everyone
who works at HEINEKEN as well as our partners
and suppliers, NGOs and governments, stakeholders
and local communities.
Our sustainable development strategy, Brewing
a Better World, includes 2020 targets in six key
areas. Through this strategy, we are determined
to contribute to the UN Sustainable Development
Goals (SDGs). Our focus areas are linked with
specific SDGs and their targets, ensuring that we
make a meaningful contribution to the common
global goal to end poverty, protect the planet and
ensure prosperity.
As we continue to progress towards our 2020
targets, we are on track to reach most of our
commitments. In some areas, including water
balancing, accident prevention and regional
sourcing in Africa, we still have work to do.

strategy, material issues, contribution to the U N SDGs, stakeholder
engagement and performance - along with case studies from our
businesses around the world.
