Asahi Group Sustainability Actions

Published sustainability reports

Asahi Group says it publishes a Sustainability Report and an Integrated Report to explain its sustainability work, results, and targets. It also says that some older reports, like environmental and TCFD reports, were folded into the Sustainability Report from 2023. This suggests the company is trying to keep its reporting in one place and show both financial and non-financial performance together.

Set climate targets to 2040

Asahi Group has set a climate plan called Asahi Carbon Zero. It says it wants to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040 across Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. Scope 1 means direct emissions from its own sites, Scope 2 means emissions from purchased electricity, and Scope 3 means emissions in its wider supply chain. It also says it has a 2030 target to cut Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 70% and Scope 3 emissions by 30%, using 2019 as the baseline.

Joined RE100 for renewable power

Asahi Group says it joined RE100 in 2020. RE100 is a global group of companies that commit to using 100% renewable electricity. The company says it aims to source all electricity from renewable sources in its operations by 2040, which it describes as ten years earlier than its earlier 2050 goal. It also says it is working on early renewable energy rollout and cleaner fuel use in manufacturing.

Shifted to recycled plastic bottles

Asahi Beverages says that every plastic soft drink bottle in its Australian range is now made with 100% recycled plastic. It says this includes brands such as Schweppes, Solo, and Pepsi. The company presents this as a major packaging step, and it fits with its wider packaging plan to reduce plastic weight, use more recycled material, and sell some label-free products.

Backed community charities

Asahi Beverages says it has partnered with OzHarvest and Rural Aid and will provide more than $1 million over three years. OzHarvest is a food rescue charity, and Rural Aid supports farmers and rural communities. The company also says it has supported flood relief and food relief efforts in Australia through brand-led campaigns and donations. These actions show a focus on community support rather than only environmental work.

Used electric trucks in Perth

Asahi Beverages says it introduced a fleet of electric trucks to deliver beer and other drinks across Perth. Electric trucks can cut tailpipe pollution because they do not burn diesel while driving. The company says the vehicles are part of its logistics work in Australia and are branded for several of its beer labels. This is a practical operations change rather than a product change.
