Designed to support businesses that are committed to integrating corporate responsibility into they way they do business, CORE enables firms to map corporate responsibility activity and benchmark it against other organisations, all independently verified by an external assessor.
This is the first time Moy Park has achieved this particular accolade, having first achieved Standard CORE recognition in 2017. The judging panel highlighted Moy Park’s approach to sustainability, investment in training opportunities for employees and passion for corporate responsibility across the business.
