Anadolu Efes Positive Impact Plan
Digitalization and rapid technological developments, urbanization and fast changing demographics are transforming life.
As an example, consumer behaviors changed and the expectations of the corporate consumers changed accordingly. On the
other hand, climate change and diminishing resources revealed it was necessary for us to change our production and
consumption methods, as they were creating pressure on the environment. The growing population needs to reach food
through the sustainable agriculture methods protecting the ecosystems. We believe the business world should be a
transformative power that leads to a better future. In line with this view, we have adopted the positive impact creation
approach through our value-added business model. We focus on increasing our positive impact on the major impact areas of
the environment, people, community and value chain.
With our innovative “Positive Impact Plan,” we announced our plans to create a better impact by establishing
collaborations and partnerships and emphasizing our contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
ENVIRONMENT
APPROACH
As a producer obtaining its raw materials from nature, environmental sustainability plays a key role in our continued
operations. Climate change and diminishing resources impact the agriculture and food industries significantly.
Therefore, tackling climate change is one of our material areas. We also aim to implement the waste and packaging
practices supporting the circular economy and managing the water risks.

sustainable agricultural practices while also implementing joint projects with our suppliers and dealers. We always
prioritize product quality and safety to ensure we offer our customers the best products.
