In Good Company The theme of this year’s report, In Good Company, reflects the importance of our network of partners, including customers, shareholders, suppliers, our people and communities. The Board of Directors has striven to ensure that the Company has a comprehensive approach to stakeholder engagement, including building robust stakeholder engagement practices which allow us to listen to stakeholder concerns and feedback, and taking steps to engage further when deemed appropriate. As part of our commitment to ongoing dialogue and engagement, we, along with The Coca‑Cola Company, invited policy makers, investors, customers, non‑ governmental organisations and industry associations from across our markets to our Annual Stakeholder Forum. Anastasios Leventis and Charlotte Boyle represented the Board at our 2018 forum in Vienna, where we listened to stakeholders’ views on sustainability and the key issue of how we continue to tackle packaging waste.
