Responsibility and profitability are the levers of Bel’s growth model, which has opted to combine financial and non-financial performance. This model is overseen by the Executive Committee, and is the result of a high level of integration between our growth strategy and commitments. It is gradually being applied at all levels of the company: in our facilities and brands, in our investments, as well as in our decision-making processes.

Fulfilling our mission through six priority challenges
CSR is an integral part of the Group’s mission and is central to its strategic plan. It is overseen by the Executive committee and applied to brand and country-level roadmaps in order to examine each decision and action through a CSR lens. Six priority challenges have been set based on the findings of the Group’s materiality and risk analyses.
