Embedding Sustainability into Everyday Work

As sustainability challenges grow in scale and complexity, building shared understanding and ownership among team members is critical. Creating opportunities for learning, engagement and action helps translate sustainability from strategy into daily decision making across diverse markets and functions.

Reinforcing Awareness through Sustainability Awareness Month

DFI’s annual Sustainability Awareness Month supports our long-term sustainability commitments by strengthening internal capability, engagement and collaboration. By connecting sustainability to everyday roles, the initiative helps embed long‑term thinking into how teams design, source and operate.

Activating Learning, Participation and Action

Under the theme “Today, Tomorrow, Together”, DFI delivered a month‑long programme combining learning, dialogue and hands‑on activities. Initiatives were built around our core pillars of Sustainability Framework:

• People: We launched the Sustainability Academy on DFILEARN, our internal learning platform, empowering team members to upskill and lead transformation.
• Products: We hosted a Sustainable Product Tasting Session, featuring canapés made with our own brand products like Yu Ping King’s low-carbon rice, Meadows canned tuna and IKEA plant-based meatballs.
• Planet: From planting 1,500 palm trees in Cambodia to touring Hong Kong’s first CO₂-refrigerant supermarket, and championing campaigns like “Bring Your Own Reusable Container” and “Trash-to-Treasure” Challenge, we brought sustainability to life across communities.

Group‑Wide Engagement and Strong Participation

During Sustainability Awareness Month in September 2025, over 3,000 team members participated across more than 30 events. Together, they strengthened engagement and reinforced sustainability as a shared mindset and way of working.
