Webcor Group || Corporate Responsibility

Corporate Responsibility

At Webcor, we have always believed that true growth is only achieved when the communities in which we are present develop and fulfill their potential as well.

Through the growth of our business, year after year, we were better positioned to engage in sustainability programs and initiatives throughout Sub-Saharan Africa. We have always been driven by the belief that we“grow together.”

Under the same name, “Growing Together,” our sustainability strategy is designed to drive positive impact and sustainable development through our business activities.

Our Mission

We Focus Our Efforts To Achieving Sustainability Through Our Practices Based On Three Pillars:

Sustainable Development Goals

In 2015, Webcor became a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact – an initiative that brings together global companies with UN agencies, labor groups and civil society to fulfill key principles related to human rights, the environment and anti-corruption.

Through this partnership, we commit to align our practices and operations with all principles of the UN Global Compact and to take actions to advance the Sustainable Development Goals ( SDGs). We focus on integrating the Sustainable Development Goals into our key initiatives to enhance our social and environmental programs and ultimately our business strategy.

We concentrate our efforts on the most relevant SDGs on which the company has the most significant impact.

Zero Hunger

We believe that being involved with and serving our community is a vital part of our mission. Food is a fundamental need in life. The ability for people to feed themselves is a fundamental human right to which we are committed.
Good Health and Well-Being

We are committed to enhancing the welfare of key stakeholders in our business, including the communities we live and work. We focus on the financial, physical, and psychological well-being of your workforce. We also actively engage our employees to participate in several initiatives to educate and raise awareness on good health and nutrition.
Quality Education

We are committed to nurture and empower our employees by developing their talents and strengthening their skills. We also offer full scholarships to the children of our committed employees, based on their merit.
Gender Equality

As a business operating in a global market, we have a strong and enduring commitment to diversity and inclusion. We are committed to develop and ensure an inclusive environment where all people feel understood, valued, supported, and respected.
Decent Work

We strive to offer our employees competitive benefits matching or exceeding local and industry standards. We are also committed to having a pivotal role in supporting local farmers, providing not only products but complete service. To close our cycle, we also pledge to source fresh products locally.
Innovation and Infrastructure

We actively promote sustainable industrialization. To reduce our carbon footprint, we continuously modernize our facilities with energy-efficient electronics, lighting systems, and technologies wherever and whenever possible.
Reduced Inequalities

We have clear goals to reduce inequality within and among our communities. Our strategy involves developing more local production units that will create jobs and make food more accessible and affordable to all.
Responsible Consumption

We recognize that global environmental protection and sustainable development are major challenges faced by the world. Doing more with less, ensuring sustainable consumption patterns throughout our value chain remains a top priority.
Climate Action

We communicate key environmental issues and solutions so that our team members and our communities can make well-informed decisions about the environmental impact of all aspects of our business and their own actions.
Partnership for the Goals

As a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact, we proudly partner with all shareholders to accelerate our progress towards a more sustainable path.
