At SaltaSustainable our emphasis is on encouraging top-class business practices – efficient, well-run organisations with excellent stakeholder relationships.

We know from experience and good evidence that running a sustainable business brings cost savings, and other commercial benefits, such as increased sales, enhanced reputation and share value, ability to attract financial investment, staff recruitment and retention, legal compliance and avoidance of scandal. This is why we believe in the three ‘e’s of the triple bottom line – environment, economics and ethics – equally.

Recent analysis shows that during the economic crisis, companies with verified sustainability credentials have financially outperformed the market average by 15%.  A T Kearney 2009.
