An integrated part of our business
Corporate responsibility is an integrated part of Ahold’s daily business. As one of the world’s leading food retailers, we can help consumers understand the consequences of the choices they make when shopping in our supermarkets and the impact of those choices on their health, the environment and communities.
We believe that building a sustainable future for our company and our stakeholders is the right thing to do. Our customers, investors, suppliers, employees and the communities we serve also expect us to take environmental and social interests into account. We consider their concerns every time we make a business decision.
Ahold leaders agree CR priorities
Senior executives from across Ahold discussed and agreed our 2009 corporate responsibility priorities at the global leadership conference in Washington D.C. in September 2008. Ahold’s corporate responsibility strategy was one of the main themes of the conference, underscoring our commitment to building a sustainable business. The meeting gave the Corporate Executive Board, management teams from each of our operating companies, and senior managers from the Corporate Center the opportunity to discuss Ahold’s priorities and dilemmas.
