Agricultural products are vital for humanity, but environmental risks like climate change can significantly impact the yields and quality of these essential materials, as well as the lives of farmers and their communities.   In Australia, we're teaming up with our partners in #agriculture to tackle these risks head-on, deepening our understanding and improving quality management. Our collaboration with Australian farmers spans years, during which we've supported their sustainable practices and directly purchased their barley. Our connection with farming partners and rural communities is crucial.   At Asahi Group, our commitment is to source agricultural products in a way that respects both the #environment and #humanrights. Through our 2030 roadmap and new targets, we're aiming to secure sustainable raw materials and address human rights risks in our supply chains.   Explore our new approaches to agricultural raw materials on page 77 of this report: https://lnkd.in/gWPXgdiN   #AsahiGroup #EnvironmentalVision #Sustainability

What an amazing night for the Asahi Beverages and Carlton & United Breweries teams, being recognised at the Australian Drinks Awards for the second year in a row as Supplier of the Year. Not only did the team win Supplier of the Year, but they also received the 2024 Category Management Award and eight brand awards. Showing up for customers in ways that matter is central to how we operate and so acknowledgement of our people through these Awards is incredibly humbling. Thank you to all our customers for your trust and partnership. Together we look forward to continuing to achieve great things. #GreatPartnerships #AustralianDrinksAwards

Yesterday, we announced in Armidale, NSW, a new Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with energy retailer Flow Power, moving us closer to our target of having 100% of our purchased electricity sourced from or offset by renewables by 2025.  The partnership was unveiled at the New England Solar Farm, which is the largest solar project in NSW and the equal-largest in the National Electricity Market. This deal to harness the New England sun helps provide certainty for securing long-term energy supply. Victoria Bitter is already brewed with 100% offset solar energy. The deal is our third PPA in Australia. It follows the installation of thousands of solar panels at our major breweries in Yatala, Queensland and Abbotsford in Melbourne to help produce some of Australia’s favourite beers. Pictured here is Sarah Donnan, NES Project Director, ACEN Australia, Thomas Griffiths FCA GAICD, Head of Strategy & Investments – BaptistCare NSW, ACT and WA, Kirsten Sturzaker, Group Head of Sustainability – Asahi Beverages and Sarah Cork, Product Manager - Flow Power.

It was a great pleasure to welcome all our 2024 intake of Asahi graduates to Melbourne for our mid-year graduate event. As part of the cross-functional learning that the Asahi Graduate Program offers, the team had the opportunity to immerse themselves in sales and engage with our customers in the field. Their visit concluded with a tour of Abbotsford Brewery, where they learned about the brewing process from one of their peers who is currently based at Abbotsford. These events bring young people with diverse backgrounds and interests together to share experiences and build networks that many will carry forward throughout their careers. If you, or someone you know would like to know more about the 2025 Asahi Graduate Program, applications open soon!

Drum roll please…and the Global Asahi 2024 AGP AWARDS Grand Prix winner is … the Circular Plastics Australia PET Team. The Asahi Beverages Circular Plastics Australia (CPA) PET Team was thrilled and humbled last week to receive global Asahi’s highest internal accolade, the AGP Awards Grand Prix Award. This was for their work partnering with Pact Group Holdings Ltd, Cleanaway Waste Management , Coca-Cola Europacific Partners and Government to establish two PET recycling plants in Albury (NSW) and Altona (Vic) that aim to create a circular economy for PET bottles in Australia. Staged in Melbourne last week, this is the first time the AGP Awards have been held outside Japan, so it was especially exciting to have an Australian project crowned the overall winner this year.   Competing against nine outstanding projects from around the world, the CPA project stood out as the embodiment of the Asahi Group Philosophy (AGP) demonstrating ‘Challenge and Innovation’, Excellence in Quality’ and ‘Shared Inspiration’. Congratulations to the CPA team. The global AGP Grand Prix Award is fitting recognition for a world class team building a world class capability in Australia that will benefit future generations.
