Defining and prioritizing the issues that matter the most

Defining and prioritizing the issues that matter the most

Almarai consistently evaluates its significant subjects to stay current with all sustainability-related issues, including risks and opportunities that could affect the company, the communities where we work, and overall sustainable development, both directly and indirectly.

Our strategy and reporting approach are primarily informed by materiality assessments. The outcomes of these exercises help us ensure we are covering the topics most relevant to our stakeholders, that we are addressing evolving risks and opportunities, and that our sustainability goals are aligned with our strategic business objectives.

In 2022, we re-evaluated our materiality assessment exercise, originally conducted in 2019, to ensure that our sustainability material matters remain relevant and timely. After careful consideration and internal deliberation, we reaffirmed our existing materiality assessment.

The list of material topics is presented below:

At Almarai, our top priorities are Quality and Food Safety, Climate Change Nutrition and Wellbeing, each playing a crucial role in our commitment to excellence and responsibility. We are unwavering in our dedication to Quality and Food Safety, ensuring that every product meets the highest standards to safeguard consumer health and building trust in our brand. We also acknowledge the pressing urgency of Climate Change, which has continuously driven us to adopt more sustainable practices that minimize our environmental impact and promote responsible resource management. Additionally, Nutrition and Wellbeing are central to our mission, as we strive to enhance food security and foster healthier lifestyles through our diverse product offerings. By integrating these priorities, we not only enhance our operational integrity, but also reinforce our position as a responsible corporate citizen, committed to creating shared value for all stakeholders and paving the way for a healthier, more sustainable future.
