SUSTAINABILITY
Committed to sustainability
A goal in every cup
The Lavazza Group has embraced sustainability since its very beginning, and for more than 15 years has carried out activities in the field through its Foundation.
The United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals guide us in the development of projects that aim to spread awareness of these goals, whilst at the same time support farming communities in coffee-producing countries. Such support for these communities addresses both their economic development and agricultural practices that serve to protect the environment.
Here at the Lavazza Group, we believe that promoting a model based on valuing people and the land is the key to building a balanced relationship between the coffee industry and communities, one of the founding values of our Group.
Our global goals approach
Our sustainability mission has been engraved in the Lavazza DNA from the very beginning, and continues to be a key strategic point in its long term vision. Embracing the United Nations 2030 Agenda, Lavazza has developed a Manifesto, identifying 4 goals. These goals guide the sustainability long term vision and reflects the deep sense of responsibility that the Group has always demonstrated towards the communities with whom it operates, particularly coffee producers, its own employees, customers and end consumers.
5. GENDER EQUALITY
Lavazza Foundation programs promote a balanced gender approach in coffee family businesses and commits to ensure women’s participation in training projects targeting coffee growing communities.
8. DECENT WORK & ECONOMIC GROWTH
Promoting sustainable economic growth and ensuring a safe working environment form the foundation of our first pillar and are essential to our ability to expand to new markets globally.
12. RESPONSIBLE CONSUMPTION & PRODUCTION
We can influence the entire chain — both on the production side as well as reaching consumers through our strong and visible brand.
13. CLIMATE ACTION
We commit to support scientific research on coffee, as well as working with producers to provide training and knowledge sharing that will help them to successfully navigate changing climate conditions.
