OUR ENVIRONMENTAL COMMITMENT
The Group's concrete commitment to protecting and safeguarding the environment has resulted in the inclusion of three ESG-related indicators among the Group's short- and long-term objectives for 2023: the definition and implementation of strategies aimed at reducing emissions, the Group's commitment to using sustainable materials, and the reduction and eventual elimination of the use of chemicals in production processes. These objectives will be assessed using three indicators that will contribute to the definition of the Group's objectives in terms of variable bonus targets, both long-term and short-term.
In line with its environmental commitment and strategy outlined above, Ferragamo has partnered with various logistic providers to offset and reduce, through carbon neutral certified projects, all CO2 emissions generated by the shipment of its products; specifically, an agreement with UPS for the products ordered through the eCommerce platform in the United States and a partnership with DHL Express for the eCommerce shipments in Europe.
As of 2016, for all the Italian facilities, Ferragamo has obtained the ISO 14064 Certification concerning the reporting of CO2 emissions, the ISO 14001 Certification, which defines an Environmental Management System and the ISO 50001 Certification, to ensure a more efficient and sustainable use of energy.
Since 2017, the Company has voluntarily participated in the CDP's Climate Change questionnaire, to favour transparency and accounting of CO2 emissions. In 2024, Ferragamo achieved a CDP Climate Change score of A- and a CDP Water score of B. Based on the 2024 CDP questionnaire, Ferragamo entered the 2024 CDP Supplier Engagement Leaderboard, ranking that celebrates the leading companies assessed for their ability to engage suppliers on the issue of climate change.
