“We need to make sure that our brand and everything we do is purposeful and brings benefit to the community and the planet which we occupy,” said Lucy Bai, Nespresso sustainability manager. “ESRT has helped us in our B Corp journey by providing us with key insights into our data and understanding our environmental impact, so it allows us to see our waste footprint as well as energy consumption.”
