Stakeholder Engagement and Value Chain

Stakeholder Identification
The Group recognizes the importance of all stakeholders in driving sustainable business operations, considering them not only as those affected by the company's operations but as key players in the organization’s long-term success.
Accordingly, the Group systematically identifies stakeholder groups to understand their needs, expectations, and concerns. This serves as a vital foundation for:
- Defining Materiality Issues: Ensuring the sustainability report covers issues affecting both the business and stakeholders (Double Materiality).
- Developing Management Approaches: Creating appropriate, transparent, and effective communication and engagement guidelines.
- Grow together: Encouraging the Group and its stakeholders to grow together securely in the long term.
