The objective of this sustainability pole is to contribute and create a sustainable future for our island and understand the growing issues and impact that resources can have on the environment. Phoenix Beverages Group takes a responsible approach in its activities that aligns with the goals of sustainable and inclusive industrialisation. Our ongoing investment in upgrading our production facilities improves efficiency, increases productivity, enhances employee well-being. Phoenix Beverages Group, now through PhoenixEarth Initiative, has supported the responsible production aspect of consumption by collaborating effectively with local recycling organisations.
