#Vision
Understanding the environmental impact of the food value chain
To engage in sustainable transformation, there needs to be a deep understanding of Sustainability foundation concepts across all key company functions. To achieve this, building on Amorino’s previous steps in sustainability, we conducted awareness-raising workshops about the environmental impact of the food value chain. Providing background information on sectoral environmental impacts helps to strategize efficiently and to perform aware decision-making.To understand how the food sector is integrating sustainability practices, we also elaborated a market analysis and benchmark identifying the latest sustainability trends in the ice cream industry.
#Sustainability
Stimulating data-driven sustainability decision-making
In order to engage in a data-driven sustainability approach, we performed an audit of Amorino’s sustainability action plan assessed against an existing environmental footprinting. By assessing Amorino’s real impact and having a keen understanding of what has been done (scope and performance metrics), it was possible to craft a sustainability roadmap with better prioritization and more alignment with environmental impact data. This was accompanied by cost-benefit analysis to ascertain which solutions and actions were to be prioritized.
#Business Transformation
Leveraging environmental insights for strategic marketing
The goal was to help Amorino integrate sustainability content in their dialogue with key stakeholders, namely consumers and employees, and to increase their already solid brand reputation on the market. The first priority was appealing to more eco-conscious customers and engaging all consumers with Amorino’s sustainability goals. For this, we crafted stakeholder engagement guidelines and communication recommendations, keeping in mind the European directives on Green Claims.
