The second area of activity of our ESG program, the one linked to the environment, KIKO CARES FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, is instead composed of 3 pillars:
1) DEFEND THE PLANET
The path towards sustainable development requires policies, procedures and lines of action aimed at protecting the environment. Responsible use of natural resources and reducing impacts require a strong commitment to the well-being of future generations.
The company is committed to continuously improving its environmental performance to reduce the impact of our stores, logistics and products. This is achieved through: points of sale that use energy responsibly, reducing waste in shops and offices and adopting plastic-free e-commerce.
Increasing the use of green energy and minimizing our waste is of strategic importance to us as these actions contribute to our long-term sustainability.
2) QUALITY AND CONSCIOUS PRODUCTS
We offer quality products that respect the environment and are safe for our customers.
We are inspired by the highest standards of eco-sustainability in the sector, we collaborate with partners who are particularly attentive to this issue, so that products are created with particular attention to more sustainable formulas and packaging.
To improve our positioning in terms of environmental impact, we constantly carry out many initiatives and set ourselves objectives to improve circularity and promote the use of sustainable materials for the coming years.
3) WORKING ON CHANGE WITH SUPPLIERS
At KIKO Milano we have great respect and consideration for our suppliers: they are an integral part of our value chain and of enormous strategic importance for the success of our business.
In fact, they represent a fundamental part of the process of minimizing our environmental impacts: their choices in terms of raw materials, packaging, transport and logistics have a significant influence on the overall environmental impact of the company. In addition to this, the social sphere also plays a relevant aspect. We want to work with suppliers who guarantee the highest social and ethical standards, respecting human rights and people's dignity.
As a global company with supply chains around the world, we know we play an important role in encouraging our suppliers to implement sustainable practices.
We therefore aim to collaborate with them to identify and reduce environmental and social impacts throughout the supply chain.
