Firm Restates Commitment To Environmental Preservation

As the world marks World Clean Up Day, the management of Pernod Ricard Nigeria, a member of the Pernod Ricard Group, has restated its commitment to environmental preservation.

The firm revealed that it celebrated this year’s World Clean-up Day themed, “Make Room for Life” in collaboration with Let’s Do It Nigeria, authorised representative for World Clean-up Day in Nigeria.
World Clean-up Day is an annual global social action programme aimed at combating global waste problems and advocating a shift towards better waste management.

The managing director of Pernod Ricard Nigeria, Michael Ehindero said, “We share a world of finite resources which is under huge pressure from mankind’s activities. At Pernod Ricard, we strive to minimise waste at every step by imagining, producing and distributing our products and experiences in ways that optimise the use and promote the preservation of natural resources.

Our goal is to minimise environmental impact while creating better moments and positive interactions with our consumers.

“We encourage everyone to join the cause and participate in World Clean-up Day activities within their communities. Together, we can contribute to creating a cleaner, healthier planet for present and future generations.”

He explained that over 2,800 tons of wastes were collected across 28 states by 26,000 plus volunteers in partnership with Let’s Do It Nigeria last year.

“The clean-up operation strongly aligns with Pernod Ricard’s Sustainability and Responsibility Roadmap for 2030, specifically under the Circular Making pillar and represents an enduring commitment to environmental sustainability, ensuring a healthy future for Nigerians and global societies alike.

“As a socially responsible organisation and through its sustainability roadmap, Pernod Ricard has planted over 6,000 trees across Nigeria, eliminated single-use plastics, reduced her environmental impact through reusable and recyclable packaging, unboxing some of its brands by doing away with single bottle cartons to reduce waste, while applying five key principles,’’ they said.
