EcoVadis has recognized the Goody’s-Everest Group’s corporate commitments and performance in the field of sustainable development.
The Goody’s-Everest foodservice group has received the Gold Recognition Level from EcoVadis—one of the world’s largest and most credible sustainability assessment platforms—for its business practices and dedication to sustainability. Notably, the Group’s rating places it in the top 5% of companies evaluated globally.
EcoVadis evaluates a company’s integration of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) based on its policies, practices, and measurable outcomes. The assessment framework includes 21 sustainability criteria across four key pillars: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. The methodology is grounded in international standards, including the UN Global Compact Principles, ILO Conventions, GRI Standards, and ISO 26000. It also provides a roadmap for continuous improvement.
Andreas Tsoukalas, CEO of Goody’s-Everest Group, stated:
“Achieving GOLD status—from our previous SILVER level—is a significant milestone that confirms the growing integration of sustainability principles throughout our organization and reflects our collective efforts to create value for all stakeholders. The Goody’s-Everest Group has voluntarily committed to the 10 Principles of the UN Global Compact and actively contributes to the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through specific initiatives. One of our top priorities is reducing greenhouse gas emissions, a goal we pursue by participating in the global Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). We remain firmly dedicated to this journey of progress, striving for continuous improvement in our sustainability performance.”
