Brambles’ performance in 2023, which improved from tenth to third position in the overall global ranking while also leading the Australia-Pacific region and its industry, reflects the positive impact of its circular business model on global supply chains.
“The release of our 2025 Sustainability Strategy signaled Brambles’ intention to build on our sustainable circular model to pursue a regenerative vision,” said Graham Chipchase, Brambles Chief Executive Officer.
“Being named the world’s third most sustainable company acknowledges the collective effort across every facet of our business towards those transformative sustainability goals. It also recognizes the contribution of our customers and partners who share this vision and continue to collaborate with us to shape the global supply chain for a regenerative future.”
“As a leader in carbon productivity and board diversity, and with 100% sustainable investments and revenue shaping its business, Brambles is demonstrating how companies can reap financial rewards while making socially and environmentally responsible business decisions,” added Toby Heaps, Corporate Knights CEO. “As the transition to a sustainable economy ramps up, Global 100 companies like Brambles are in the lead and positioned for continued success in the future.”
Brambles’ ranking on Corporate Knights’ Global 100 list is the latest in a succession of sustainability recognitions and awards by global indices and ratings agencies, including ranking first for its industry in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index and earning double A ratings from CDP for transparency and action on climate and forests.
In December, Brambles also reconfirmed its continued support of the UN Global Compact, integrating these principles into its business strategy, culture, and daily operations.
