Irish business raises the sustainability bar

John Daly reports on Irish business initiatives that have broken new ground in global sustainability

Sustainability commitment: Origin Green works with around 53,000 farms and 324 Irish food and drink companies.

Irish businesses, particularly in recent generations, have been pioneers when it comes to setting and achieving sustainability goals.

One good example of this is Origin Green, the Bord Bia-led national food and drink sustainability programme. Since its launch a decade ago in 2012, Origin Green has supported huge progress in the Irish food and drink industry’s journey to a more sustainable future.
