The Sweet People, a leading confectionery and chocolate gifting company, is proud to announce its official recognition by the United Nations as a Net-Zero Aligned Company through the UN’s Race to Zero campaign.

This global initiative mobilises leadership across industries to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

The Sweet People’s commitment to sustainability has long been integral to its operations. Joining the Race to Zero strengthens its dedication to environmental responsibility and contributes to international sustainability goals.

“We are thrilled to be part of this critical global movement,” said Ashleigh Clark, Sales & Marketing Manager. “Achieving net-zero emissions is not just a goal but a responsibility to future generations.”

At the recent Innovation Zero conference, leaders such as Bob Wigley, Chair of UK Finance, and Tim Lord, Head of Climate Change at HSBC UK, stressed the urgent need to decarbonise faster to limit global warming to 1.5°C. This urgency aligns with The Sweet People’s mission to drive sustainable practices in the promotional products industry.

The company will continue enhancing its energy-efficient production methods and sustainable packaging solutions while collaborating with suppliers and distributors to minimise their collective environmental footprint.

Through innovation and leadership, The Sweet People is making meaningful strides toward a carbon-neutral future.
