Corporate Social Responsibility
For over 130 years Weston Foods has been a proud Canadian company and has donated a percentage of its profits back into communities across North America where its employees and customers live and work.
Each year Westons' donates more than 1% of pre-tax profits to not-for-profits in the form of both cash and in-kind donations. Funds are mainly directed to charities that help children enhance their physical activity levels or improve their knowledge of healthy eating habits. In 2013, over sixty organizations received funding and 14,500 children and youth joined sports or nutrition programs because of our funds.
Also, since 2010, Weston Foods employees have raised funds to benefit selected charities in their own communities that support children, as part of the Weston Cares employee campaign. All funds raised by employees, their friends and families, are matched by the company and together they have donated over $2.3 million to charities across North America.
At Weston, we love to give back.
We're a socially responsible corporation in tune with the need to share our experience and our wealth. Here are some of the initiatives and steps we've taken to protect the environment, our consumers and our employees as well as share with the community.
The environment is of great importance to us all. As manufacturers and distributors of bakery products we need to act responsibly to minimize our environmental footprint on the Earth, for it is the resource from which we all make a living.
We have set an annual reduction target* of 2% ACROSS THE BUSINESS for each of the following:
- Water use
- Solid Waste to Landfill (or incineration)
- Electricity consumption
- Natural gas consumption
* Per unit of production
As manufacturers and distributors of bakery products, we have implemented robust health and safety programs to ensure that everyone goes home safe and sound each day.
We are committed to delivering the best bakery products and solutions for our customers while maintaining high standards of food safety and consistent quality. We will continue to develop and introduce products to meet the needs of consumers.
Weston recognizes that good businesses are part of a larger community. We support transformative philanthropic initiatives that connect us to our colleagues, customers and clients.
