Breaking barriers and pioneering sustainability in business - these actions deserve attention from all emerging companies. Let us explain why their initiatives are significant.
If you supply anything to them or aim to do so, this article is important for you. These five companies have been the part of the Global CDP A-List for 2023. CDP gave an A list to only 362 companies out of 21,000.
Who is CDP? Let’s discuss.
Established two decades ago, CDP operates a worldwide environmental disclosure platform. More than 23,000 companies have provided sustainability data related to the environment, water, and forests through CDP. Please note that these are not small companies. Collectively, they constitute a minimum of two-thirds of the global market capitalization in terms of value.
Why are they disclosing to CDP?
Because CDP is trusted by all companies. 746 investors, holding assets worth over US$136 trillion, and over 330 major purchasers with procurement spends exceeding US$6.4 trillion, are urging their value chain participants to disclose their environmental data via CDP.
Let’s check what’s happening here in India.
In the upcoming years, an increasing number of Indian companies will likely disclose their data through CDP. If you're a supplier to them, the most rewarding approach would be to streamline their process by simply disclosing your environmental data. You are part of their Scope 3.
This presents an opportunity for MSMEs to capitalize on. Only those entrepreneurs who lead their industry with a deep understanding of the sustainability reporting landscape will accelerate their progress. By doing so, they will position themselves as preferred partners in the value chain for companies aspiring to make it onto the CDP A-list.
Soon CDP will issue disclosure portals for MSMEs too. Picture yourself becoming a top player in environmental initiatives, standing tall in the eyes of much larger global corporations. At ESGKpo, we can help you to start this journey effectively.
