ENV/C.1/SER/2011/0019 5 1 Executive Summary The Retail Forum1 is a multi-stakeholder platform set up in order to exchange best practices on sustainability in the European retail sector and to identify opportunities and barriers that may foster or hinder the achievement of sustainable consumption and production. Membership in the Retail Forum is voluntary and open to all retailers who join the Retailers' Environmental Action Plan (REAP). Environmental initiatives of REAP Members are reported in the Matrix of Environmental Action Points (MAP) which records progress made in the environmental sector over time. This report contains the external monitoring of the achievements made by members of the Retail Forum by the end of 2012. In addition the report provides a long-term progress overview over the past four progress monitoring reporting years. The REAP database - by October 2013 - contains about 596 reported environmental commitments from major European retail companies and associations. Compared with last year’s database, 61 commitments have been removed, and 141 new commitments have been added. The total figure comprises 194 commitments in the category “What we sell”, 268 commitments in the category “How we sell” and 132 commitments in the category “Communication”. Taking into account the number of targets scheduled for 2011 and before of 196 there remain 400 future oriented commitments. This corresponds to an increase in future oriented commitments compared to the previous reporting period in 2012 of about 80. Almost 60 % of the commitments relevant for this year (221)2 have timelines for 2012 or are classified as ongoing and have been included in the summary assessment for achievements made. In this context it is important to note that the majority of commitments this time are ongoing (153) whilst only 68 have a fixed timeline. 15 % (61) have short-term timelines for 2013 and 2014, and 22% (100) have long-term targets up to 2020/2050 (89) or are not specified.

  • President and CEO Matti Halmesmäki's Answers to Questions at Kesko's Q1/2012 Media and Analyst Briefing on 26 April 2012
    President and CEO Matti Halmesmäki's answers to questions at Kesko's Q1/2012 media and analyst briefing on 26 April 2012 Heino Ylisipola of Kaleva, Turun Seudun Sanomat and Väli-Suomen Media: Was Kesko interested in acquiring the R-Kiosk chain before it was sold to Norway about a month ago? Matti Halmesmäki: Of course, the chain is interesting as a well-known and significant brand. But we did not participate in the final bidding because we decided to concentrate on our own concepts. The eventual price was quite low, but we don't regret it, even if R-kioski is a well managed business. However, there are certain risks associated with the declining sales of magazines, which will reduce customer flow. In addition, games are going online, opening hours have weakened R-kioskis' competitive advantage, and logistics are so expensive that price competitiveness is difficult to maintain. As for us, we are strongly developing K-citymarket's information and service concept. For example, we will introduce Smartpost automatic parcel points in all K-citymarkets to be operated in connection with the information & customer service desks. Customers can order products online for delivery to the parcel point at any of the over 70 K-citymarkets, plus some of our K-supermarkets. We are aware that with this service, we will support competitors' online trade. But we see customer service as the main thing, and at the same time, the service will help K-citymarkets to increase their own online sales, as it will enable special product sizes or models to be ordered for customers.

Thank you for participating in our livestreamed event, which is being broadcast from a corona-proof studio in Brussels. It would have been nicer to meet you in person, of course, but the lockdown measures have forced us to present our full year results in another format. The setup is different, but we will keep you just as informed as we normally would. What hasn't changed are today's speakers. Elia Group is represented by Catherine Vandenborre, CFO, and by Chris Peeters, CEO, both in good health, as you can see. Today's programme is as follows. First, we will give you an overview of the headlines from 2020. We will talk with Chris Peeters about the acceleration of the energy transition and how Elia Group is managing it. Catherine Vandenborre will then present the financial results. And finally, we will present our conclusion and an outlook on the years to come. Before we start, I would like to present a disclaimer for today's presentation as mentioned on the title page. You must read the disclaimer before we can continue. I suppose you have all done it by now. Am I right? So let's immediately go to the first question for Chris. Marleen Vanhecke: Chris, looking back at 2020, it's impossible to avoid the corona crisis, of course.

  • Here Practices Will Be Intimately Connected with Knowledge, and Knowledge Will Create Practices
    mega-trends in Nordic-Baltic food systems MEGATREND 1 Technology will penetrate all areas of social life #1 Technology will penetrate all areas of social life We’re living in the fourth industrial revolution — Industry 4.0 — where practices will be intimately connected with knowledge, and knowledge will create practices. New technologies combined with digital innovations will make it possible to engage with longstanding societal, environmental and economic issues. Furthermore, our personal access to technology, as well as any limits to its access, will continue to influence our relationship with food. In a context in which data is the new gold, collected from satellites, drones, equipment and machines such as those used by the primary sector and the food industry, nature-based solutions will provide a counter-balance to the “tech-can-fix-it” paradigm. MEGATREND 2 Food systems will be redesigned with a new set of goals #2 Food systems will be redesigned with a new set of goals The 21st century is creating further turmoil in food systems. The present challenges associated with food security, new dietary patterns and the increasing perception of food as a lifestyle commodity will result in growing numbers of conflicting ideas regarding how to produce, distribute, sell and consume food. Climate change, loss of biodiversity and environmental degradation will become even larger threats to the Nordic-Baltic region and the world. The agri-food industry will become a key player in reversing many environmental issues. The major challenge will be ensuring diets that support human and planetary health, while striking a balance between promoting international trade in food and agriculture and protecting local food systems.
