GroStronger, GroFaster, GroSustainably

Our Sustainability Approach

Sustainability is central to achieving our mission of feeding the world, through the development of innovative products and solutions that support safe and responsible aquaculture. Our approach unites employees around shared goals and a mindset of continuous improvement, turning principles into action to create lasting value for our stakeholders.

Our strategy

Grobest’s sustainability strategy is built around 5 pillars: Governance, Ethics and Compliance, Innovation, Responsible Sourcing, Sustainable Operations, and People & Culture. These pillars embody the most material areas that impact our business, and we strive to reduce our risks while setting an ambitious roadmap towards realizing our vision of being the Asian leader in sustainable biotech functional feeds for shrimp and fish, helping farmers succeed through our innovation in animal health and technical solutions.

Our focus areas

A materiality assessment is the cornerstone of a robust sustainability strategy because it helps evaluate an organization’s impact on the economy, the environment, and society. This approach enables us to better understand the significance of various ESG factors to Grobest’s stakeholders, as well as their relevance to our business.

Our 2022 materiality assessment confirms this and we intend to continue to engage our key stakeholders to address material risks as they evolve.
