The group partnered with the municipality of VacoasPhoenix on World Clean-up Day (September 18) to organise a clean-up campaign in the area. Various partners and local volunteers participated, including the mayor of Vacoas-Phoenix, the CEO of PhoenixBev and the president of the Rotary Club of Ebène. The clean-up started at Morcellement Basalt which covers a number of areas and two rivers. In addition to collecting litter and waste, several trees were planted on the banks of the rivers. Changing to clear to promote recycling From January 2022, PhoenixBev changed Crystal Sparkling brand bottles from green to clear to improve their recyclability. While the previous green bottles were recyclable, clear PET is more highly valued by recyclers as it increases the options for reuse of the recycled material. The switch to clear will improve recycling rates and increase the shift to the circular economy. ASE S T U D I E S Availability and quality of natural ingredients PhoenixBev’s ability to meet market demand for quality beverages depends on our ability to secure a consistent supply of natural ingredients that meet our stringent quality standards. Critical natural ingredients we use as inputs include water, malt and hops for beer, sugar and fruit pulp for other drinks. Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is used to carbonate beverages. We mitigate supply chain risk by ensuring that we have more than one supplier in place for key ingredients wherever possible. Suppliers are engaged and evaluated on an ongoing basis with quality conformance to specification and sustainability being key criteria. Suppliers in the supply chain for Coca-Cola products commit to the Coca-Cola Supplier Guiding Principles and are certified by The Coca-Cola Company. 71 70 Phoenix Beverages Limited Integrated Report 2022 Phoenix Beverages Limited Integrated Report 2022
