Document summary

An overview of ESG issues in Asia’s beverage sector. Across the environmental, social and governance sections there are a range of important issues that beverage companies need to address in order to earn a licence to operate in Asia. The top three sustainability issues facing alcoholic beverage companies are: corporate water management and reporting, responsible marketing and government relations; for non-alcoholic beverage companies the issues are corporate water management and reporting, supply chain and community engagement. The report concludes with a scoring analysis benchmarking 30 of Asia’s biggest listed beverage makers across 10 countries.
