Sustainability and social responsibility are key to ABC Nutrition’s business and embedded into our lead for
growth. Our mission is to produce premium products and continually promote the ingredients we use in our
products as being produced in the most sustainable fashion possible with our combined ethos rooted deep in
our rural local community. ABC Nutrition has been privileged to be a part of the Origin Green Sustainability
programme and we aim to be a vital member of this programme. Our main initiatives include:
- Responsible Sourcing
Our suppliers under Dairy Schemes, SEDEX (Supplier Ethical Data Exchange) members and ISO14001,
an internationally recognised environmental management standard make up a large proportion of our
key ingredients supply. ABC Nutrition aim to increase the percentage of our key suppliers with
sustainability certifications with keeping a focus on Irish produce. A large proportion of our dairy
ingredients are purchased from Irish dairies and is the homestead of the principle and primary
producer. As Irish dairy farms are predominantly family-based operations this further leads to the
sustainability of rural populations and general environment. Irish dairy farmers operate
predominantly grass based dairy production systems which is a major slump for CO2. The overall
green imagery and sustainability of Irish dairy production gives ABC Nutrition a progressive position at
international level in an already extremely competitive marketplace.
- Focus on Sustainability
Currently ABC Nutrition have zero waste going towards landfill. We aim to maintain this goal while
additionally reducing our general waste by 2% each year.
Recyclability of our packaging is also a major driver for sustainability. We use recyclable material
wherever possible in manufacturing, but we aim to bring this further in our finished goods outputs
with the introduction of increased recyclable packaging.
- Focus on our Environmental Impact
With already 35% of our energy currently being produced from renewable sources. ABC Nutrition Ltd
aim to have a cumulative reduction of energy usage by 10% by 2024.
- Focus on Health & Nutrition
ABC Nutrition are committed to supporting customers in the creation of healthier more nutritious
products with special focus on the convenience markets who are often a driver in unhealthy lifestyles,
with the introduction & increase sale of high protein healthy snacking products.
- Community Support
ABC Nutrition Ltd are very conscious of social and employee responsibility and have partaken in many
initiatives in our rural locality since founding of the company and will continue to do so. This is under
constant review to enable all community schemes are considered under the current climate. For
2020, we opted to support those aiding in the COVID19 response such as UL Hospital, Clare COVID19
Response, Suicide Watch Limerick, Temple Street, The Mater Misericordia University Hospital via
Food Heroes and many more.
“We have always been deep-rooted in our community. We want to give back in the most effective and
sustainable way to the area that contributed so much to our success as a business.”
