At Bumble Bee Foods, the importance of sustainability and our responsibility as an organization is reflected in both the company's vision and mission:
As North America's leading supplier of shelf stable seafood and one of the world's top 10 branded seafood companies, sustainable fisheries and the preservation of aquatic resources is at the core of our company's sustainability programs and initiatives.
Bumble Bee Foods led our industry with the implementation of a corporate initiative aimed at ensuring the world's canning grade seafood species (including tuna, salmon, sardines and clams) we provide to our consumers is sourced from stocks that are harvested and managed in a manner which ensures that they can continue to supply seafood for future generations. In 2005, we established our formal Sustainability Policy:
While sustainable fisheries is core to our program, our corporate sustainability and responsibility program reaches beyond fisheries and across our business encompassing our operations, packaging, supply chain, consumers, communities and our employees.
We have established a 2009 baseline for our Greenhouse Gas emissions, energy use, water use and solid waste generated from our operations and will use this baseline to develop goals and measure progress going forward. Our efforts are led by a Director of Sustainability and a Sustainability Committee that includes our Chief Executive Officer and senior leadership from cross functional areas within Bumble Bee.
While we are closer to the beginning than to the end of our work in sustainability, we are proud of our efforts to date and invite you to dive deeper to learn more about our work. We are committed, and confident, that we can affect change that will preserve precious resources for generations to come.
