North East bakery giant Greggs has announced strong progress in its pledge to make the world a better place, a year after launching the initiative.
The Newcastle based food-on-the-go firm last year launched The Greggs Pledge, a series of 10 commitments set out in an annual sustainability report, which included targets to reduce its environmental impact and protect animal welfare.
The pledge, which is aligned with the ambitions of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, is based on three key areas where the firm said it is best placed to make the most difference - building stronger and healthier communities, making the planet safer and being a better business.
