ESG PERFORMANCE: WE WORK FOR OUR FUTURE AND YOURS

Our commitment to the safeguard of ecosystems and sustainable development has driven us toward establishing a path of corporate sustainability, an ongoing commitment geared towards generating value and reducing our environmental impact.
Vigolungo’s approach to sustainability is incisive, real, and in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s) as defined by the UN with the 2030 Agenda.
After industry analysis, comparisons of specific benchmarks, and internal surveys, we identified our material themes, to understand the aspects that reflect ESG impact and influences stakeholder decisions. Why doing this? Because we believe that to be impactful, one must first be aware.
