Sainsbury’s publishes 2006 CR Report - ReportAlert.info!


Monday, July 10th, 2006


One of the UK’s largest food retailers, Sainsbury’s, has published its third Corporate Responsibility Report.

The report outlines five principles that underpin the company’s approach to corporate responsibility: aiming to be ‘the best for food and health’; ’show respect for our environment’; ’source with integrity’; make a ‘positive difference to our community’, and be ‘a great place to work’.

The report also shows that during the past year, Sainsbury’s:

  • put its ‘Wheel of Health’ nutritional labelling on almost 1700 products, with research showing that more than 90 per cent of customers find it useful
  • donated £3.3million to charities via its food donation scheme
  • launched organic compostable packaging
  • reduced road mileage by five per cent
  • became the biggest retailer of Fairtrade products in the UK
  • launched a ‘Farm Promise’ milk scheme that supports farmers with a guaranteed income to convert to organic
  • stopped selling two types of fish - Skate and Huss - on ’sustainability grounds’
  • invested £18.6m in community initiatives, an increase of 170 per cent from the previous year.
