Methodology
WBA analysed all publicly available group-level disclosure in English on the applicable group website, which was predominantly annual reports and sustainability reports. Draft assessments were then sent to each company inviting them to provide feedback. This feedback could include additional publicly available group disclosure published. These were then reviewed and finalised. Final assessments were then shared with each company before being published online.
For this metric the commitment should specifically mention minimise/reduce-type terms and ecosystem conversion, land degradation, deforestation, and similar terms. Commitments do not have to specifically mention the whole supply chain. Broad terms such as “minimise environmental impact” are not accepted.
