CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY

Guatemalan Sugar Industry

The increase in environmental awareness among consumers has led to higher market requirements and expectations, demanding that natural resources and ecosystem services be used in a clean, safe, efficient, and sustainable manner, while ensuring that products meet the highest possible quality standards.

Likewise, the importance of implementing environmental prevention, reduction, and remediation measures to address the negative effects of climate change has intensified. These measures are intended to be an integral part of productive business projects, reducing and mitigating adverse impacts on society and the environment, and building the knowledge base necessary to ensure the sustainability of natural resources and ecosystem services in the short, medium, and long term.
