Our Approach

Approach to Sustainable Operations and Their Impact

What We Do to Advance Sustainable Development?

The concept of corporate responsibility and sustainability is an integral part of the culture of Pivara Skopje, as part of the international groups Coca-Cola HBC and HEINEKEN.

In its operations, Pivara Skopje is guided by sustainability principles, with the aim of preserving the environment and resources for future generations. These principles are integrated into every aspect of our activities and represent a key element of our business strategy, creating value not only for the company, but also for employees, consumers, customers, partners, and the community.

Sustainability is the foundation of every segment of our operations. We believe that long-term success is possible only if we actively contribute to addressing today’s most significant challenges, which is why we invest in areas we have identified as priorities. We approach these areas strategically, with clearly defined sustainability goals at the level of both Groups, Coca-Cola HBC and HEINEKEN, of which Pivara Skopje is a part.

That is why we are fully committed to:

  • Rational resource management
  • Responsible management of packaging waste
  • Circular economy
  • Reducing CO₂ emissions to zero by 2040
  • Increasing focus on biodiversity
  • Water resource management – every drop matters
  • Supporting the local community

We firmly believe that, as a company, we have a responsibility to take an active role, set a positive example, and help address these challenges through sustainable practices, innovation, and partnerships.

Activities and Commitments

At Pivara Skopje, we invest significant resources, knowledge, and energy in finding and implementing solutions to issues that concern us all, both as individuals and as a society.

Our commitments are focused on addressing some of the most pressing global and local challenges, such as:

  • the use of single-use plastic,
  • responsible management of packaging waste,
  • climate change and its mitigation,
  • the health, nutrition, and well-being of consumers.

We firmly believe that every company has a responsibility to take an active role in solving these challenges through sustainable practices, innovation, and partnerships at both global and local levels.

Collaboration for Greater Impact

We recognize that the greatest social and environmental challenges cannot be solved independently. Therefore, Pivara Skopje actively seeks to combine its capacities with those of other companies, institutions, and organizations, believing that only through joint action can we create greater and long-term sustainable impact.

Sustainable Development Goals by 2025

As part of the Coca-Cola HBC Group, Pivara Skopje follows the sustainable business goals set in 2018, with a clear focus on achieving them by 2025.

These goals include 17 specific commitments, structured across six key areas throughout the entire value chain, from reducing carbon emissions and responsibly managing resources, to caring for the community and the people with whom and for whom we work.
