Who is our customer

Ulusoy Un Sanayi ve Ticaret AS (“Ulusoy”), a major flour milling company and supplier of staple food (flour and wheat) in Turkey.

What is our funding objective?

It is to contribute to funding a consulting project that will support and advise Ulusoy in the designing of its group’s wider sustainability strategy and integrated reporting

Why do we fund this investment?

Ulusoy is a current client that has signed another facility. Monitoring and ESDD visits were carried out, and demonstrated commitment to go beyond basic ES requirements. This has been reflected on its commitment to a new ESAP that includes action items that are additional when compared to FMOs requirements. One of them (seen in the consultant’s proposal) is the development of a sustainability strategy composed of targets and KPIs, an action plan to meet targets, structuring E&S data and information gathering internally, and report on progress. The client requested for support. This exercise will also support the client in reporting its performance against IFC PSs and therefore improve the identified weak E&S reporting abilities of the client. This will also help the client understand where it stands compared to good industry practices locally and worldwide. It was also expressed by the client their challenges in structuring and gathering all ES information for easy access and adequate presentation of it. This project will help them in this challenge. This project’s value addition is also anticipated through improvements in the client’s E&S system, capacity to maintain alignment with FMO standards and manage ES risks, and further acceleration of Ulusoy’s E&S performance.
