Fraser & Neave Holdings Bhd Sustainability Report 2021

In each market that we operate in, we undertake a number of long and short-term programmes that serve to create greater social equity. To that end, we have developed five main thematic areas to focus our community endeavours: • Supporting COVID-19 Relief • Strengthening Vulnerable Groups • Promoting Environmental Consciousness • Spreading Festive Cheer • Promoting Active Lifestyles Supporting COVID-19 Relief • Standing in Solidarity with the Local Communities & Frontliners The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how people live and work. People’s personal concerns shifted to health, hygiene, and well-being. It became apparent that the impacts of the pandemic were unequal when countries started imposing lockdowns, and some marginalised groups could not have their basic needs met. The prolonging COVID-19 pandemic and lockdowns in Malaysia have severely a*ected many underprivileged communities in Malaysia. F&NHB has extended support towards the nation’s frontliners and vulnerable communities’ since the beginning of the pandemic. To date, over 2 million products have been distributed directly or through NGO/community groups to beneficiaries nationwide, including non-profit organisations – Free Food Society, Pertubuhan Kebajikan Oasis Harapan, Street Feeders of KL, and others. In Thailand, we have donated medical equipment and our products to Uthai Hospital and Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Hospital for the frontliners and patients. TARGET • Increase in the number of annual community programmes to 11 Progress • 11 community programmes were conducted in this Financial Year. GRI Index: GRI 413-1 We understand that the scale of our operations in the region goes beyond impacting only our consumers. We connect and support our local communities by maintaining positive relationships and strengthen these relationships between di*erent cultures to promote social inclusion. We believe that social inclusion allows for businesses and societies to flourish together. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND INCLUSIVE GROWTH APPROACH INITIATIVES SDG 1: No Poverty SDG 2: Zero Hunger SDG 3: Good Health & Well-being OUR 2025 COMMITMENTS • Supporting Nation’s COVID-19 Immunisation Programme F&NHB backs the Malaysian government’s call to achieve herd immunity and continues to extend support towards the nation’s COVID-19 Immunisation Programme. The Group drives the immunisation initiative by raising public awareness on the importance of maintaining optimal hydration levels during the vaccination period. As part of the initiative, F&N distributed 100PLUS to vaccine recipients at major vaccination centres in Klang Valley since June 2021. We also kept our front liners on duty at COVID-19 vaccination centres hydrated and energised with our beverages as they performed their duties to serve the nation. Over 1 million products have been distributed to vaccine recipients, frontliners through the #HidratkanDiriSihatkanBadan campaign. 070 C R E A T I N G V A L U E F O R S O C I E T Y
