F.B.M. operates on a firm foundation of ethics and love for our environment. Responsibility has been lived and practiced since our earliest days and we have always been committed to sustainability.
F.B.M. international best practices include constantly balancing our company’s impact on the environment with our responsibilities to our customers and the market. As our business evolved, we decided that social responsibility was an important core value for our company and that should be approached even more strategically and with a long-term vision.
Today, F.B.M. has acquired a certain level of expertise and awareness on this subject. The company aims to make social responsibility one of the strategic pillars at the base of its operations.
It is important to raise awareness about the importance of our social responsibility role. As a company, we established a corporate strategy that takes into account the impact that the company has at a social level — to make all stakeholders aware and to transmit positive, ethical, and sustainable values as part of our way of doing business.
F.B.M. continues to focus on initiatives aimed at safeguarding, improving the economic and social conditions of the local communities where it operates, and having a holistic vision to drive company and social growth.
Our social WHY is to improve consumers' well-being in the kitchen: everything we do aims to cultivate the cooking experience; through a product we interact with daily when preparing food.
In 2020, we did a beautiful job in redefining our long term vision and corporate mission. It was during this time that we included F.B.M.’s Purpose: to “combine the passion and trust of our people in a multinational family that innovates and evolves responsibly to enhance the excitement of people cooking and the well-being of those who choose us."
Our next step was to conduct a company assessment — a snapshot from the point of how we operate. Four key pillars emerged from this exercise: the company, our people, the environment, and the markets where we operate.
Starting with this assessment, we have set our future goals to continue on these pillars. How will we do this?
We used a materiality matrix that allows us to connect the company's priorities (our four pillars) with the main issues of interest for our stakeholders, to define a line of action that combines the perspectives of both parties.
All of these results are encapsulated and translated into a sustainability report, addressed to all stakeholders, which illustrates F.B.M.'s evolution in addressing these issues.
This report is the expression of the corporate strategy that we have given ourselves today and as a future priority.
F.B.M. is constantly striving for improvement. We are creating an F.B.M. Corporate Social Responsibility strategy that is more specific and forward-focused. It will include the four pillars listed above and expand on them.
