For its performance in matters concerning the environment, society and corporate governance (ESG – Environmental Social Governance), the OPTIMA SA cheese company was distinguished in the international evaluation EcoVadis, in which it took part for the first time.
OPTIMA was evaluated for its policies, practices and actions in four main pillars: Environment, Ethics, Labor & Human Rights and Sustainable Procurement. It is worth noting that in the EcoVadis ranking system (Sustainability Rating) more than 500,000 companies worldwide are evaluated every year for the business practices they follow in the fields of sustainable development.
“For this particular project we worked intensively for more than 5 months with the perfect cooperation of many different departments of our company. The fact that we took part in this assessment for the first time and managed to achieve high scores in each of the four axes examined fills us with joy, pride and optimism for the day ahead. This certification comes to practically confirm OPTIMA’s long-term commitment to a business strategy governed by the principles of social responsibility, the circular economy and sustainable development, and is primarily based on ethical and honest relationships with all partners,” said the manager quality systems and certifications of the OPTIMA Group Alexandros Teganitas.
