Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Diverse #people, Sustainable Growth

Barry Callebaut is a growth company and we intend to keep growing: in new geographies, new segments of the market, with new expertise, new products, new customers. We can only grow sustainably as a company if we grow as individuals and as teams, if we are able to attract talents wherever they are and create an environment where they feel they belong and can develop their full potential.

This is what is at the heart of our #people strategy, and this is why Diversity & Inclusion matters to us:

To be able to attract and retain talents from all quarters of society and the world, united by our values, and to nurture an inclusive environment where this diversity can flourish. Or, summarized in one sentence:  #one BC – Diverse #people, Sustainable Growth.

On this basis, we have developed a focused, ambitious, measurable and time-bound D&I Strategy. 
 
By 2025, we aim to achieve: 

  • More progress in gender balance at senior level
    - 40% women at Director level
    - 30% women at Director level in Sales
  • More diversification in the origin of our talent at senior level
    - 50% local talent at Director level in countries of origin and emerging markets

“With a business spanning from farm services to chefs pâtissiers and master chocolatiers, and from the large cities of the world to the small cocoa farms in rural areas, we thrive on the diversity of who we are, where we come from, what we’ve experienced and how we think. We are committed to nurturing an inclusive environment where everyone is given the opportunity to learn, grow and fulfill their potential.”

Antoine de Saint-Affrique, CEO of the Barry Callebaut Group

Each year we will report on progress we have made against these targets in the Group’s Annual Report.

“We are a purpose-led company, driven by our love for cocoa and #chocolate, our passion for growth and our commitment to sustainability. Like Forever #chocolate, Diversity & Inclusion is about growth: growth of our talents, growth of our attractiveness, growth of our company. We have to commit to time-bound targets focusing on a few business critical challenges. What you measure, you improve!” 

Isabelle Esser, Chief Human Resources Officer of the Barry Callebaut Group
