Company Products Durability Media Career Financial Contact Visit the consumer website » Durability Durability As of 2014, all our sustainability activities can be found at www.bavaria.com/sustainability. With the launch of this website, our principles and ambitions with regard to sustainable entrepreneurship are made much more accessible. We believe it is important that our information is accessible and easy to consume for everyone. From consumer to CSR professional. Ultimately, sustainable entrepreneurship is only really effective if it also makes your environment think and appeals to everyone's responsibility. In 2013 we started to reach our consumers in a totally new way. Writer Renske de Greef wrote a science-fiction thriller as a prelude to the 2012 CSR annual report, making it a lot more accessible for a broad target group. This e-book can still be read at www.bavaria.com/71 . Sober about beer Beer is a beautiful natural product with a wide range of flavors and types, varying from non-alcoholic beer to specialty beer. In addition, the Dutch beer sector is a resilient sector that is good for the economy. In order to guarantee this versatility and maintain its resilience, brewers in the Netherlands want to take their responsibility. They do this in the areas of sustainability and the environment, beer and economy and responsible beer consumption. A website that provides extensive information about the product beer, moderate and responsible beer consumption, beer and health and sober upbringing is appropriate for this. That is why the website www.nuchteroverbier.nl was launched in 2014 at the initiative of the Dutch Brewers. Bavaria goes for the Code of Conduct for Fair Trade Practices Vanwege de geluiden dat er soms problemen zijn tussen bedrijven in de voedselketen, is er een zogeheten Gedragscode Eerlijke Handelspraktijken opgesteld. Ofwel The Supply Chain Initiative. Het kan bijvoorbeeld gaan om het eenzijdig wijzigen van prijsafspraken of het toepassen van boeteclausules. De Europese Commissie heeft een aantal richtlijnen vastgesteld hoe het wel en niet zou moeten. Men erkent dat zich in de hele voedselketen oneerlijke praktijken kunnen voordoen. Men is ook bereid om deze aan te pakken. Het initiatief wordt in Nederland ondersteund door de Federatie Nederlandse Levensmiddelen Industrie (FNLI). Partijen in de voedselketen, zoals Bavaria, kunnen het belang van de gedragscode ondersteunen door een intentieverklaring te ondertekenen. Bavaria heeft dat ook gedaan. We will now have to put our money where our mouth is, because signing the letter of intent alone is not enough. For example, there is a permanent contact person in case of differences and the code of conduct plays an important role in drawing up contracts. The fact that we support this initiative means that we respect the principles when drafting new contracts with, for example, retailers. In addition, we provide more information about the code of conduct in our own organization and we also inform our customers and suppliers.
