SUSTAINBILITY REPORT 2023
Leading the way in shaping sustainability
Efficient. Successful. Genuine.
Sustainability is a wide-ranging and much-quoted term these days. At times, it seems as though it is compulsory to use it to justify every possible development and decision. Yet as usual, Branicks is following a different path. We published our first report on sustainable developments within our business more than ten years ago. Even back then, something that has since become crystal clear was already true: you can only report authentically on what you have seen – and lived through – yourself. With this in mind, we use this report to tell the outside world about what we have already achieved “on the inside”.
We thank the readers of our Sustainability Report 2023 for their interest in the sustainable development of our company and hope that they will continue to accompany us on our journey.
