Why might this uniqueness be important to you?

First, because many of the opportunities and issues that we face as an industry can’t be addressed by individual compa-nies alone, or just by collaborating regionally. Our members know that the CGF’s global, cross-value chain perspectiveis critical in at least four areas:• Sustainability – acting together to position the industry as a leader in protection against climate change, reducing

waste, eradicating forced labour and promoting compliance with good working and environmental practices• Product Safety – increasing confidence in the delivery of safe food globally through the continuous improvement

of food safety management systems

• Health & Wellness – empowering consumers to make the right decisions and helping them to adopt healthierlifestyles

• End-to-End Value Chain & Standards – identifying and implementing global standards, protocols and principlesfor the management of data, processes and capabilities that span the value chain

Second, in today’s increasingly interconnected world, the value of sharing global best practices and building globalpersonal networks has never been greater.

We are an inclusive community. Our members include small and large companies, food and non-food, nationals andmultinationals. Our manufacturer and retailer members work together as peers.

Being a member of the CGF thus brings several concrete benefits:• The opportunity to shape the industry’s critical operational standards that support value chain efficiency and

protect consumers, workers and the environment

• Practical help to implement global standards and best practices in your company

• A powerful way to engage directly with external stakeholders who influence the reputation of your company aswell as that of the industry as a whole

• The opportunity for your key executives and future leaders to build their capabilities and personal networks byparticipating in focused working groups and select high-profile events that are recognised as being at the heart of

our industry

We are extremely proud of the work we do and the level of commitment offered by our members. Without their con-tinuous support and dedication, our goal of driving positive change throughout the industry would not be possible. Ourglobal membership and the collaborative efforts that they undertake are the foundation of our success. With this inmind, please feel free to reach out and connect with us, whether you are a member already or simply interested inlearning more before committing to our vision – “better lives through better business”.

REGIONAL ACTIVITIESOur mission is to drive efficiency and positive change by helping manufacturers and retailers to collaborate

together on a CEO-driven agenda. We focus our work on four “Pillars”: Product Safety; Environmental and

Social Sustainability; Health & Wellness and End-to-End Value Chain & Standards. In each area, we help our

members to set and achieve shared, global objectives.

In order to drive positive change as broadly as possible and engage all of our members, we complement our

global efforts with a regional approach. This involves tailoring the global Pillar strategies so that they are

relevant to each region, sharing implementation best practices and engaging with key local stakeholders. In

every region, we seek to coordinate closely with local trade associations.

THE CGF LATIN AMERICA BOARDTo guide this regional approach, we have started to estab lish regionalBoards that oversee the implementation of the CGF’s Pillar agendasand membership engagement activities on a “local” level. The first of

these regional Boards was established in Latin America on August 28,2015. It reports to the CGF’s Board of Directors.

• Represent the interests of the CGF in the region;• Tailor and prioritise the global CEO-driven Pillar agendas so that

they are relevant in the regional context;• Encourage and support the implementation of these agendas in all

CGF member companies;

• Feed the regional perspective to the CGF Board;• Engage with relevant external stakeholders and act as the voice ofthe industry where necessary to support the implementation of thePillar agendas;

• Encourage non-member companies in the region to join the CGFand participate in its work;

• Collaborate with local manufacturer and retailer associationstoward the achievement of shared goals.

The seven goals of the CGF Latin America Board:

“The Narrative Working Group” focuses on strengthening the reputation of ourindustry in Latin America by creating a robust,pro-active narrative. We are a major sourceof jobs; we stimulate the economy, accelerateinnovation, expand consumer choices andpromote advances in social and environmentalstewardship.

 At its first meeting in September of 2015, the CGF Latin AmericaSteering Committee created four working groups

“The How to Build a StakeholderDialogue Working Group”aims to leadour industry as the key regional partner in anopen, transparent, multi-stakeholder dialoguethat will include civil society, super-nationalorganisations, the scientific community, nationaland regional associations, etc.

“The Promoting Healthy HabitsWorking Group” analyses what ourindustry is doing in the region to promote thehealth and wellness of our consumers andour own employees. The goal is to leverageretailer/manufacturer collaboration to achievemeasurable impact.

“The Roadmap Working Group”will propose goals to the Latin Board for ourindustry to make measurable progress on theachievement of its objectives. The initial timelineis a 3-year period and our first area of focus ishealth and wellness.

CGF Resolution:

For refrigeration…“We are taking action to mobilise

resources to phase out high GWP(global warming potential) HFCs and

have more sustainable management

of refrigeration and systems”.

 SUSTAINABILITY - ENVIRONMENTALOUR WORK ON A GREENER, MORE SUSTAINABLE TOMORROW Our Sustainability Pillar sees members collaborating to support the industry’s goal of creating sustainable value

chains and business practices globally. With an emphasis on tackling today’s biggest climate change issues,

our approach to driving positive change is built around engaging our wider membership and encouraging

participation and implementation, with a firm commitment to reduce the level of global warming associated

with the consumer goods industry and through participation in specialist, open working groups designed to

address key challenges.

PROVIDING ENVIRONMENTAL LEADERSHIP

The mission of our sustainability work is to position the consumer goods industry as a leader in tackling climate chan-ge, reducing waste and improving social and environmental stewardship in global supply chains. This objective will beachieved through the global and collaborative efforts of our members and, more specifically, by addressing sustainabilitychallenges that impact the industry; bringing global alignment and voluntary standards to non-competitive areas such asethical sourcing; and developing and agreeing on methodologies and metrics that measure sustainability improvementsin the industry.

DEVELOPING PUBLIC COMMITMENTS & A FRAMEWORK FOR CHANGE

In 2010, our Board approved two public commitments on achieving zero-net deforestation by 2020 – through the sustainable

sourcing of key commodities like soy, palm oil, beef and paper and pulp – and on beginning to phase out HFC refrigerants from2015. A third resolution was then approved in 2015 to halve food waste within our members’ individual operations by 2025. Mostrecently, in October 2016, our Board approved a new refrigeration resolution focused on the rapid phase down of high GWP HFCSin member operations and the call for the inclusion of HFCs in the Montreal Protocol. To help support these goals, our membershave co-produced a number of key tools, like our Activation Toolkit, a series of sustainable commodity sourcing guidelines andthe Global Protocol on Packaging Sustainability. Furthermore, we regularly engage with key sustainability actors and are involvedin multi-stakeholder initiatives such as the Food Loss and Waste Protocol established with the World Resources Institute. We willcontinue to work with our members, providing guidance and supporting those who seek early adoption.

CGF Resolution:On food waste…

“We are committed to preventing food

waste and maximising its recovery towards

the goal of halving food waste by 2025”.

CGF Resolution:

On deforestation…“We pledge to mobilise resources within

our respective businesses to help achieve

zero net deforestation by 2020”.

DRIVING THE AGENDA THROUGH MULTI-SECTORAL COLLABORATIONS

Our members fully appreciate the need for multi-sectoral and collaborative actions if we are to achieve our climatechange goals, and how global partnerships can bring about positive change. We know this is true, because we’vealready had success in this area. By developing cross sector partnerships we can create powerful sources ofadvocacy and show how multiple companies from multiple sectors support action by policy makers on issues suchas carbon pricing, science-based targets and carbon reporting. This is evident by the portfolio of programmes andworkstreams that we are currently working on and through the co-founding of such collaborative partnerships as theTropical Forest Alliance 2020 and the Banking Environment Initiative.

SUSTAINABILITY - SOCIALFIGHTING FORCED LABOUR

Our Sustainability Pillar also includes a dedicated social focus. Our members have been long committed to promoting

decent working conditions worldwide but recognise that the eradication of forced labour remains a key challenge. We

are, therefore, working to drive global collaboration between retailers and manufacturers and thereby dedicate specific

efforts to address forced labour as one of the most pressing social issues of our time. This commitment was confirmed

with the January 2016 announcement of a Board-approved Social Resolution on Forced Labour, and, more recently,

through the announcement of the Priority Industry Principles on Forced Labour.

CREATING A PLATFORM FOR SUCCESSTo help ensure implementation across our wider membership, we will harness the power of collective action as an industry group to identify and address issues and geographies of sharedconcern, enhancing the efficiency of any individual company initiatives in this area. In areas of shared concern, we will jointly develop specific action plans supporting the eradication of forcedlabour, in alignment with the widely embraced guidance provided by the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.

To achieve this ambitious goal, we will work closely with other industries, with governments and with civil society. We recognise that progress will require meaningful advances in enforcementof relevant national laws, international frameworks and increased support for and protection of victims and vulnerable populations. Going forward, our members will collaborate in advancing theglobal adoption of the Priority Industry Principles.

THE PRINCIPLES

I. Every worker should have freedom of movement.The ability of workers to move freely should not be restricted by their employer through abuse, threats and practicessuch as retention of passport and valuable possessions.

II. No worker should pay for a job.

Fees and costs associated with recruitment and employment should be paid by the employer, not the employee.

III. No worker should be indebted or coerced to work.

Workers should work freely, aware of the terms and conditions of their work in advance, and paid regularly as agreed.

CGF Resolution:

On Forced Labour...

“We strive to eradicate forced labourfrom our value chains and continue not to

tolerate it within our own operations”.

RECOGNISING OUR INDUSTRY’S ROLE

Today, according to the International Labour Organisation (ILO), almost 21 million people are in forced labour, with14 million victims of labour exploitation. Estimates show that illicit revenues from forced labour stand at $150 billionannually, making it the most profitable global crime. Our industry is at risk, because of its complex, disaggregatedglobal supply chains that rely on low-skilled labour. Forced labour can be found in sectors such as food and beverage,agriculture, manufacturing, and many sub-segments of fast moving consumer goods. They often involve some of thepoorest countries in the world with limited institutional capacity for regulation to protect workerís rights. 10 countriesaccount for 71% of those in forced labour; however, all countries and sectors are affected globally.

Working closely with governments, civil society and on the ground initiatives will be intrinsic to thesuccess of our collective action on forced labour, and on effective steps to prevent, mitigate andremediate human rights impacts.

TAKING THE COLLECTIVE APPROACH

The Social Resolution engages our members as responsible businesses, to strive to eradicate forcedlabour from their supply chains and to continue not to tolerate forced labour within their own operations.Our members recognise that upholding and advancing fundamental human rights is critical to addressingthe root causes of forced labour. To this effect, the Resolution builds upon the widely embraced guidanceprovided by the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), and other internationalframeworks including the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work; OECD Guidelines

for Multinational Enterprises and the recently launched United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Building on the momentum from the CGF’s ground-breaking Forced Labour Resolution, our Boardannounced three Priority Industry Principles on forced labour in December 2016. These principles willhelp to prioritise action to address the primary drivers of forced labour within the consumer goodsindustry and beyond, translating the Resolution into action.

Through individual approaches and initiatives such as the Global Social Compliance Programme(GSCP), our members have a long track record of promoting decent working conditions worldwide.Challenges such as forced labour, however, require to strengthen these existing efforts through focusedcollective action. Through the CGF’s global influence, leadership position and convening power, we areuniquely positioned to have a positive impact, by engaging the industry alongside relevant institutionsand stakeholders.

THE GLOBAL SOCIALCOMPLIANCE PROGRAMMEJOINING FORCES FOR SUSTAINABLE GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAINSThe Global Social Compliance Programme brings together key actors of the consumer goods industry to collaboratively

drive continuous improvement in the social and environmental sustainability of supply chains worldwide. When it comes

to sustainability in complex global supply chains, no one company or country can do it alone. That is why the industry

created the GSCP, as a Programme to promote harmonisation while improving compliance and operational efficiency.

This is achieved through voluntary engagement and a suite of free open-source tools that supply a global meta-standard

framework for more sustainable supply chains.

IMPROVING GLOBAL WORKING & ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

Through our work in The Global Social Compliance Programme (GSCP), we are targeting continuous improvement ofworking and environmental conditions in global supply chains. To this end, we are working with members to harmonisethe landscape of compliance standards while supporting efforts on capacity building at supplier level through a shared,consistent and global approach. As we look to expand involvement in this business-driven programme, we will continueto drive convergence towards an internationally accepted reference through the usage of common tools/processes,sharing of best practices and partnerships.

CREATING ALIGNMENT ON BEST PRACTICES

The GSCP has developed a suite of Reference tools that describe best existing practices and provide a commoninterpretation of social/labour and environmental requirements and their implementation at supplier level. Comparabilityand mutual recognition can be achieved between our members and the wider industry by using the GSCP Referencetools as a benchmark through the GSCP Equivalence Process, the first multi-sectoral industry benchmark on socialand environmental best practice. This tool will help drive upward convergence in approaches to social /environmentalcompliance and uphold international standards, improving business efficiency, practices and reputation across the boardwhile also improving the quality of auditing across multiple sectors.

OUR COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS ON CAPACITY BUILDING

The GSCP is ultimately working towards remediation of root causes of non-compliances, aiming at supplier ownership of solutions and theirimplementation. We therefore support the development of collaborative models to build capacity at supplier site. These efforts are developed and

implemented through projects with stakeholders including business and multi-stakeholder initiatives, and international organisations such as UnitedNations agencies UNIDO and ITC. Together with UNIDO, GSCP has established a cost-effective global training programme for suppliers,“REAP+”,based upon the GSCP reference tools and UNIDO’s capacity building framework REAP, to enable suppliers to reach compliance with best existingpractice, all the while fostering market access. This work aims at enabling continuous process improvement for buying companies and their suppliersfor better supply chain and risk management and increased resource and cost effectiveness. This will create a larger and more responsible, reliablesourcing base resulting in greater consumer confidence.

Provide continuous im-provement in food safetymanagement systems to

ensure confidence in thedelivery of safe food toconsumers worldwide

GLOBAL FOOD SAFETYINITIATIVESAFE FOOD FOR CONSUMERS, EVERYWHEREThe Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) brings together key actors of the food industry to collaboratively drive continuous

improvement in food safety management systems around the world. With a vision of “Safe food for consumers, everywhere”,

food industry leaders created GFSI in 2000 to find collaborative solutions to collective concerns, notably to reduce food

safety risks, audit duplication and costs while building trust throughout the supply chain. The GFSI community works on

a volunteer basis and is composed of the world’s leading food safety experts from retail, manufacturing and food service

companies, as well as IGOs, governments, academia and service providers.

DEFINING FOOD SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

Supermarkets, restaurant chains, convenience stores, food manufacturers and

other players throughout the value chain from farm to fork all implement food safetycertification programmes. Food safety experts in our GFSI Technical Working Groupshave created the world’s most widely accepted fundamental food safety guidelines,laid out in the GFSI Benchmarking Requirements, to provide a common benchmarkfor these widely-used food safety certification programmes. Once successfullybenchmarked they are ‘recognised’, driving growing confidence, acceptance andimplementation of third-party certification along the entire food supply chain.

WORKING LOCALLY TO IMPROVE FOOD SAFETY GLOBALLYThrough our food safety capacity building framework, companies who lack or haveunderdeveloped food safety management systems are being supported througha systematic continuous improvement process in the countries that need themmost. Our Local Groups, spanning the Americas, Europe and Asia, are also workingtirelessly to address the most pressing regional issues and seek the implementationof standard methodologies.

PROVIDING A ROADMAP TO SAFER FOOD AND MARKET ACCESS

GFSI works with and for all actors of the food value chain. Not all food actors are immediately ableto access certification to a GFSI-recognised certification programme. For companies who lack orhave underdeveloped food safety management systems, GFSI has developed the Global MarketsProgramme. It sets out how these food companies can meet the challenge of food safety, whilesimultaneously reducing hazards in global food supply chains and working towards market accessthrough certification to one of the GFSI-recognised CPOs (certification programme owners). It providesan unaccredited entry point for operations with its step-by-step programme designed to build capacitywithin production and manufacturing operations, and implement a course of continuous improvement.

CREATING LINKS WITH KEY

ORGANISATIONS & REGULATORS

In order to foster greater harmonisation, one key objectiveof GFSI is to build public-private partnerships and activelyengage governments in recognising and accepting GFSIbenchmarked certification programmes as an effective andefficient tool for global food safety management. We are alsoworking on creating active relationships with organisationssuch as the FAO, WTO and OIE to further align industry andgovernment.

OUR INDUSTRY-LEADING FOOD SAFETY EVENTS

In addition to our important Technical Working Group meetings held three times a year, we bring together leading food safety specialistsfrom all over the world at our industry-leading annual food safety event – the Global Food Safety Conference – and a number of regionalevents. The Global Food Safety Conference is a unique platform for top decision makers from the global food industry to shareknowledge, network and conduct business.

The regional events raise awareness in regions that are less familiar with the work of GFSI. These events are instrumental in supportingour efforts to work collaboratively on common food safety issues and build confidence in third-party certification throughout the supplychain.

The Global Food Safety Conferenceis an annual event that brings

together over 1,000 leading food

safety professionals from more

than 60 countries around the world

to advance food safety globally.

GFSI Focus Days and Regional Events aim at raisingawareness around the benefits of GFSI in regional

markets. They were initiated to provide local stakeholders

in the food industry an opportunity to find out more about

the Global Food Safety Initiative and serve as a unique

opportunity for networking and knowledge exchange.

CGF Resolution:

With regards to product

information and responsible

marketing.

“We will provide transparent,

fact-based information that will

help consumers and shoppers make

informed product choices and usages”.

CGF Resolution: 

On access & availability of

products & service:

“We will offer consumers and shoppers a

range of products and services that support

the goals of healthier diets and lifestyles”.

HEALTH & WELLNESSFOR EMPOWERED HEALTHY CONSUMERS GLOBALLY

Under our strategic pillar on Health & Wellness, we, along with our members and strategic partners, are

looking to help consumers and employees make informed choices and adopt healthier lifestyles. We

advocate for empowering consumers with products and services and meaningful information to support

healthier diets, physical activity, balanced lifestyles and help them make good decisions for themselves and

their families.

MAKING THE LONG TERM COMMITMENT

Our Board of Directors agreed to three public Resolutions and four Commitments in 2011 and 2014,respectively. They are built upon and leverage existing proven industry initiatives and commitments.

We believe that the consumer goods industry – food, beverage, personal care and hygiene companies;both large and small – can make a unique contribution to today’s global and local health andwellbeing opportunities. And, in doing so, we can legitimately support growth by addressing unmetconsumer needs, build consumer trust and strengthen our industry’s reputation.

COLLABORATION FOR HEALTHIER LIVES (CHL)

We want to go beyond the basics of compliance and build flagship moments for the industry, by focusing on topics wherewe can have the greatest positive impact and use our industry strengths to collaborate and innovate to help people livehealthier lives.

The CHL initiative started as a desire by Health & Wellness members, as well as guidance from the CGF Board, to exploreways to impact communities across a broad and more holistic set of health indicators.

ENCOURAGING IMPLEMENTATION AND REPORTINGON PROGRESS

In a bid to ensure the widest possible implementation of our resolutionsand to track progress, a survey of members and results report arepublished on an annual basis. This is a critical driver in ensuring ourindustry takes action and in enabling CGF members to learn from ourefforts. The results of the 2016 survey are available in our latest ProgressReport: bit.ly/2017HWReport

CGF Resolution:

For communication & education about healthier

diets and lifestyles:

“We will use communication and educational programmes

to help raise consumer awareness on health and wellness

and energy balance to inspire healthier diets and lifestyles”.

BECOMING THE PARTNER OF CHOICE

Another critical success factor for the Health & Wellness team is to continue workingwith external stakeholders and become the global partner of choice within theindustry. People want to live healthier lives and expect our industry to play a rolein helping them meet their health and wellbeing needs. To this end, we continue to

engage with authoritative organisations in a multi-stakeholder approach that calls forglobal, regional and local collaboration to achieve a measurable and positive impact.

EMPLOYEE HEALTH & WELLNESS

We are looking into ways to help drive the industry forward

as we aim to help employees around the world pursue

healthier lifestyle choices and diets.

KNOWLEDGE AND BEST PRACTICE SHARING

 A key to our continued success is our members’ commitment

to openly share knowledge and best practices through

webinars, toolkits, guidelines, case studies and events.

Through our dedicated working groups, we provideopportunities to discuss challenges and solutions, work

to help shape our industry’s health agenda, propose an

implementation strategy

to deliver and build flagship moments for our industry.

The Future Value Network Transparency and Traceability

E2E VALUE CHAIN & STANDARDSINCREASING TRANSPARENCY, BUILDING TRUST Handled through our End-to-End Value Chain & Standards Pillar, our members are also working together to

benefit the entire value chain. By identifying key areas for improvement and relevant projects to support

those improvements, with a focus on demand value creation, collaborative supply chains and enablers and

standards, our work has a far-reaching impact for every level of a consumer goods business. Whether you

are working in an e-commerce warehouse, a global marketing department or designing software to track

shipping containers, there is something to be gained from working on one of our projects, attending one of

our workshops or accessing one of our reports.

DEFINING BEST PRACTICES & FORWARD-THINKINGOur teams, consisting of experts from our members, are involved in developing best practices on non-competitivebusiness processes and drawing the future value chain vision to understand where our industry is moving to. Throughreports like ‘Blockchain’, ‘Internet of Things’, ‘The Evolution of the Physical Store’ and interactive workshops and studies,our members engage on a regular basis to find new and more effective ways of working together.

OUR MEMBERS AND INDUSTRY-SHAPING PROJECTS

A key component of this pillar is our member-driven projects. With an emphasis on overcoming the biggest challenges facingour industry along the value chain – be it improving on traceability and product safety through interoperability and big data,eliminating waste in the supply chain or maintaining consumer trust – our projects have the power to shape our industryfor years to come. Our members are at the core of these efforts, and, as a member, your role can be integral in helping todefine the future of our industry. Would you like to say in 10 years’ time that your company had a say in how the businessrequirements for a new product identifier were identified? Would you be proud if your company was behind the reasonconsumers now trust companies more than ever? If yes, our projects are the place to be.

TANGIBLE, PRACTICAL & ACTIONABLE SOLUTIONS

The End-to-End pillar deals with all things that ‘move’ in a supply chain, be it a consumer item, a truck

transporting pallets or data channeled to the device of a consumer or exchanged between business partners.We believe that companies need to find new ways to collect and share data as well as collaborate on pre-competitive areas throughout the supply chain - with each other and with consumers - in a world where poordata handling, packaging waste and outmoded technologies lead to spiraling costs and inefficiencies that canspan an entire supply chain.

“Our members are committed toprinciples and practices that promotean environment of trust between the
