Our Philosophy

Sustainability at Wrigley means driving business performance by advancing the well being of people and the planet, now and for future generations.

Our Strategic Focus

To be successful in our sustainability efforts, we are focusing on four areas that we believe provide the most opportunity for Wrigley to make a difference: Operations: Facilities & Logistics, Packaging: Innovation & Sourcing, Product: Innovation & Sourcing, and Culture, Community & Communications and in 2008 Wrigley UK signed up to the Food and Drink Federation (FDF) Five-fold environmental ambition.

In each of these strategic focus areas, Wrigley is already pursuing sustainable practices and seeing results. And, plans are in place to achieve more in the future.
