Corporate Responsibility

Nichols plc has a sustainable business strategy which takes into account our environmental and wider social responsibilities.

Sustainability and the environment

We are actively working with the British Soft Drinks Association (BSDA) and also our key external suppliers and have identified four key areas for improvement, being: climate change waste and packaging water transport

During 2008 we realised some tangible improvements including a rationalisation of our product range and packaging requirements in the group's Soft Drinks division and also, in collaboration with our logistics partner and customers, we generated meaningful transportation efficiencies, whereby vehicles were loaded for both outbound and inbound journeys.

Community

Our commitment to the community continued throughout 2008, with our charity team again working hard on behalf of Derian House - raising funds from a variety of events including the annual nichols Charity Golf Day.
