Presentation of ABInBev’s supplier decarbonization platform

Speakers

Virginia Covo Global Director, Climate Action at AB InBev

Anheuser-Busch InBev is the world's largest brewer aiming at building resilient supply chains and reducing its emissions by 25% across the value chain.

Virginia Covo will present Eclipse, the company’s tactical platform for decarbonizing suppliers. Eclipse is ABInBev’s sustainability-dedicated collaboration platform developed for its network of suppliers and partners. It is designed to promote shared target-setting, standardized ways of measurement, sharing of best practices, and co-innovation. Covo will cover results of implementing this project and share some examples of how:

• Every 10% increment of recycled content can reduce emissions by 2%
• Reducing fertilizer usage on crops decreases carbon emissions in the supply chain
• Reducing water usage normally results in energy savings in manufacturing
