Saputo pledges to accelerate its global climate, water and waste performance. Today, the Company is proud to announce clear targets and a formal commitment to make significant and sustainable progress by 2025. This represents another strong step in the Company’s journey to create shared value for its stakeholders through the Saputo Promise, its approach to social, environmental and economic performance.

The Company will allocate additional resources to support the execution of this global action plan, including a three-year investment of CDN$50 million.
