When we set our commercial strategies and plans across Britvic, we are working towards our Healthier People, Healthier Planet goals being given the same priority as financial performance. The specific nature of these goals will vary by market as each business unit has a distinct role to play. Taken together, these goals support our overarching performance ambition, as well as our vision to be the most dynamic soft drinks company, creating a better tomorrow.

* We continue to reduce the calories per serve across our portfolio. While our current average is well below our 2025 goal of <30 calories per serve, the stated goal reflects an expectation that we will see faster volume growth in markets where products tend to have higher average calories per serve.
** 2025 rPET target reduced from 100% to 50% to ensure we only use high quality food grade rPET sourced from geographies that meet our high ethical standards while balancing carbon impact.
Our Healthier People, Healthier Planet strategy was built upon our progress to date, our commitment to creating a better tomorrow and delivering timely responses to the health and environmental challenges we are currently facing on a global level. In line with our commitments and accountability towards our wider stakeholders and the environment, we have fully integrated the UN Sustainable Development Goals into our strategy and aligned our objectives and targets with these goals.
While we acknowledge we contribute, both directly and indirectly, to all the 17 goals and that they are all inherently interlinked, we have identified 13 goals that are most material to our business and where we have the greatest opportunity to make a positive impact and build a business that is fit for the future.
