ESG Priorities

METRO SUSTAINABLE expresses our approach to sustainability and is the framework and at the same time the driver for all our activities aimed at increasing sustainability in our own business and at our partners and customers. Operationally, we implement this as part of our ESG strategy via our strategic sustainability priorities. We want to share our knowledge with our partners along the value chain and show how suppliers and customers benefit from sustainable choices. They can profit, for example, in terms of energy efficiency and improved waste management and the resulting opportunities related to lower costs, better products with higher margins, new customer groups and a competitive edge. They profit from more efficiency hence less costs, better products with higher margins, new customer groups and a way ahead of competitors.
