HERSHEY, Pa., June 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The Hershey Company (NYSE: HSY) today released its 2020 Sustainability Report, highlighting its progress on key environmental and social initiatives during a year of unprecedented challenges. The report reviews the company's holistic sustainability strategy – known as its Shared Goodness Promise – which includes initiatives across the enterprise and value chain such as responsible sourcing, respecting human rights, climate action, employee wellbeing, diversity, equity and inclusion, and community engagement.
Hershey's Shared Goodness Promise guides the company to make positive change at scale and leverage its business to advance more sustainable growth, with socially conscious and responsible business practices.
With the onset of the pandemic in 2020, Hershey's top priority in 2020 was the physical, emotional and economic well-being of its employees as it worked to make more moments of goodness for consumers at a time when it was needed most. The company made significant progress in its efforts to responsibly source cocoa while building healthy, prosperous cocoa communities, and took meaningful action to reduce its environmental footprint. Additionally, the company put racial equality at the forefront of its agenda, co-creating with employees a strengthened diversity, equity, and inclusion strategy, investing in underrepresented communities and taking action to help end systemic racism.
"2020 was a year of unprecedented challenges and hardship for us all, but also one of opportunity. At Hershey, our purpose – to make more moments of goodness – and our values of togetherness, integrity, excellence and making a difference, grounded our every effort as we put goodness into action by looking after one another and working together each and every day to make a positive impact," said Michele Buck, Chairman, President and CEO of The Hershey Company. "I am tremendously proud of the progress we made and the accelerated actions we took across ESG. There remains more work ahead for us, but by continuing to put our people first and focusing on what matters most to all of our stakeholders, we are confident about the future."
Notable milestones highlighted in Hershey's 2020 Sustainability Report include:
