2022 UK Brand Sustainability Benchmark ReportNovember 2022Food & Grocery IndustryUSING DATA PROVIDED BYI’m Tim, the founder of on-demand consumer research platform Glow. We are delighted to bring you this inaugural ESG benchmarking report for the UK Food & Grocery industry. Investors, employees, customers and consumers want to see more progress in terms of sustainability initiatives that support people, the environment and the planet. Brands are increasingly sharing their credentials, communicating their milestones and publishing performance against their ESG and sustainability goals. And consumers now have access to more sustainability information than ever before from a variety of controlled and uncontrolled sources. As a result a growing cohort of consumers are making their own impact by shedding the brands that don’t meet their sustainability expectations, and moving to brands that help them feel they are making ‘micro-differences’ every day.Tim CloverGlow Founder & CEOThis report addresses that challenge by providing clear insight into what F&G consumers expect from brands in this area, provides some robust benchmarks to allow brands to assess the risks and opportunities relevant to them and provides practical direction on how to optimise current ESG programs. The report leverages Glow’s unique Social Responsibility Score (SRS), a data product that is measuring over 500 brands in the UK, US and Australia. We hope it will help inform your approach to sustainability so that you can create greater impact.Thanks for reading, Welcome.Summary Expectations Brands Drivers Communications ResourcesTable of contents.01.Executive summary02.Consumer expectations are high03.The leading brands 04.What drives ESG perception05....
