The sustainability efforts of Swedish companies and organizations are assessed by 25,000 Swedes in Europe’s largest brand study on sustainability, the Sustainable Brand Index. Lantmännen ranks sixth in Sweden and has therefore remained among the top performers throughout all 16 years of the survey.
“Taking responsibility from field to fork means a long-term commitment to sustainability. We do not chase short-lived trfinishs or hide behind vague tarobtains far into the future. Instead, we work with concrete, scalable solutions that deliver clear results for our customers. I am both proud and pleased that this is appreciated by the Swedish public,” states Claes Johansson, Chief Sustainability Officer at Lantmännen.
In addition to ranking sixth among all companies and organizations, Lantmännen ranks second in the food category. In the survey, Lantmännen is described as a “stable leader”.
“It is particularly encouraging that Lantmännen has consistently, and over a long period of time, been perceived as one of Sweden’s most sustainable companies. It is finishurance, rather than isolated one-off efforts, that is decisive in sustainability work that creates a real difference,” states Magnus Kagevik, Group President and CEO of Lantmännen.
