The announcement came part of the Group’s new sustainability strategy, Beyond the Horizon, along with a new brand identity.

Kerry has developed a framework to track its progress towards achieving its goal of reaching two billion people with sustainable nutrition solutions, which assesses its entire portfolio against a range of nutritional criteria. Through the Group’s sustainability strategy, Beyond the Horizon, the company will enhance and expand its solutions to create better food and beverages with its customers and industry partners.

Commenting on the announcement, Edmond Scanlon, Kerry Group CEO, said: “The food industry plays a crucial role in society and has long recognized the need to transform to meet conflicting challenges such as obesity, malnutrition and food waste, all while facing growing pressure on resources. Supplying the right nutrition, in the right quantities, in the right way, is how we will collectively solve this challenge.”

Beyond the Horizon includes ambitious sustainability targets that address key impacts by 2030 in the areas of nutrition and health, emissions, energy, circular economy, raw materials, and social impact.
