The first BIMAL Group’s ESG report is published

BIMAL Group published its first ESG report entitled “Sustainable and responsible business”. The report covers the 2024 business year. BIMAL Group’s 2024 ESG report is the first comprehensive review of the business group’s impact and approach in the areas of environment, social responsibility, and corporate governance. The report was prepared in accordance with GRI standards (Global Reporting Initiative, version 2021), which represent an internationally recognized framework for transparent and responsible sustainability reporting.

The role of BIMAL Group in the social community in which it operates, and the impact it has on the immediate and distant environments and the business community, is significant. Therefore, as a leader in business, corporate responsibility, and corporate governance, BIMAL Group sets an example in its environment in driving positive changes.

As one of the first business groups to introduce ESG reporting into its business portfolio in our region, BIMAL Group emphasizes through the ESG report its commitment to the continuity of the quality improvement process and respect for modern work principles.

BIMAL Group is a member of the international business group STUDEN&CO Holding. It operates in two countries, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, and among its member companies are three factories: the only edible oil factory in Bosnia and Herzegovina, BIMAL in Brčko, the edible oil factory BIMAL SUNCE in Sombor and the fodder factory BIMAL BEČEJKA in Bečej.

With its Quality Policy, BIMAL Group has undertaken to contribute to the development of society and the quality of life by producing a quality and safe product, in accordance with the laws of the countries in which it operates, and to support environmental protection, human health, and employee care through the procedures and technologies it uses. Guided by these principles, which are also ESG principles (E – Environmental, S – Social, G – Governance), the Management of BIMAL Group made a strategic decision on doing business in accordance with ESG principles, with the aim of systematically approaching issues of environmental protection, social responsibility, quality corporate management and employee care.

Thanks to the joint work of the ESG team and the teams within the company’s departments, sustainability is carefully incorporated into the daily business processes. All the data presented in the report was carefully collected, with the aim of adequately informing interested parties about the group’s business activities in the field of sustainability.
