Manufacturers
Future-fit companies need to be performing well across multiple issues, rather than focusing only on a few challenges.
Company spider diagram profiles are calculated from performance on metrics within each topic.
Click through to see each company’s profile against multiple issues. Scores closer to the outer ring of the graphic indicate better performance. We also include a potential profile for “Leadership” which takes the best performance across the sector to illustrate what is possible for the sector.
Future-fit companies should aim for green lights across all issues.
Traffic light rankings are allocated from the same data used in the spider diagram profiles.
Click on each issue to see how companies compare on specific topics.
Each individual company scorecard can be downloaded below the three graphics, along with a sector summary.
Both Nestlé and Nomad Foods have committed to increasing sales of healthier foods and report against this target, although Nomad Foods has yet to set a specific target for their commitment and Nestlé’s target has been criticised for categorising products with no nutritional value such as coffee as healthy foods (ShareAction, 2024).
Premier Foods has a sales-based target and discloses data on HFSS and plant-based products. Similarly, Unilever has a target and data on plant-based products, but both Unilever and Premier Foods present their data in monetary value (£) rather than as a percentage of sales by volume or tonnage which is considered best practice.
Greencore is the only manufacturer reporting sales-based data on both plant-based and animal protein based on volume (tonnage). They have also set a target to increase sales of healthier products and are expected to report progress data later in 2024, which would position them as leaders within their sector.
