Progress report 2017-2020

Kering is sharing its Sustainability Progress Report during the ChangeNOW Summit. The report outlines the projects and progress achieved since 2017 as part of Kering’s 2025 sustainability strategy. The Group has been supporting the global summit for positive innovation since 2018.

“While our progress report reflects the very encouraging achievements Kering has made, there is still significant work to do to reach our near-term sustainability ambitions and go far beyond in the coming years.”

In 2017, Kering unveiled its 2025 sustainability strategy, with a target to reduce its environmental footprint by 40%. The strategy is underpinned by three pillars:

•    CARE: taking steps to reduce its environmental footprint and preserve the planet and its natural resources by using innovative tools.
•    COLLABORATE: contributing to high environmental, ethical and social performance by promoting parity and diversity and becoming an employer of choice.
•   CREATE: imagining innovative alternatives using an open source approach.

In 2020, Kering presents its progress report for its 2025 sustainability strategy. As promised, three years on from its strategy announcement, the Group reports on the progress made for each of the strategy’s three pillars. The Group is also focused on the challenges that still need addressing – by accelerating innovation. Because we are convinced that transparency and open collaboration are critical if we are to address the challenges of sustainability.

“At Kering, we embrace a vision of Luxury that is modern, creative, responsible and inspiring.”
