Our planet faces enormous economic, social and environmental challenges. . To confront them, in September 2015, the United Nations identified seventeen new Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) to define world priorities until 2030.
These goals are a call to action for governments, companies and civil society to carry out actions aimed at their achievement.
In Grupo Herdez, we move our projects and actions towards four of the goals: zero hunger, affordable and clean energy, decent work and economic growth, and climate action.
Goal 2, Zero Hunger
Through our Saber Nutrir® program, we ensure access to healthy, nutritious and sufficient food all year round, fight malnutrition in children and increase rural infrastructure.
The Germplasm Bank, installed in the Mazahua region, helps to maintain the genetic diversity of regional seeds and plants. In addition, our agricultural practices ensure the sustainability of food production systems, promoting the maintenance of ecosystems. GRI IP-2 GRI IP-3
Goal 8, Decent Work and Economic Growth
Through Human Rights and Gender Equity policies, the Code of Conduct for employees and suppliers, and training and nutritional counseling programs, we promote equal pay for equal work for men and women, increased productivity, entrepreneurship, creativity and innovation, as well as protecting labor rights, eradicating forced and child labor and promoting a safe and secure working environment for all workers.
