The Grand Prix winning team represented by Susan Ladrak (Sustainability Manager) and Koert van´t Hof (Corporate Affairs Director) from Royal Grolsch received a gift specially made for the AGP AWARDS, created in collaboration with artisans of traditional Japanese crafts such as Edo Kiriko. They can also donate one million yen (approx. 6 700 Euros) to a charity organisation of their choice. It is a great realisation of AGP as the work includes all the expected elements from the competition. We have a unanimous decision among the judges, which is a great achievement for you. This project will lead us to a better future and encourage us to part two of the sustainable strategy. I hope this project will be expanded in the entire business and other industries," said Atsushi Katsuki-san, Asahi Group Holdings CEO, talking about the Heat from Twence project. The online audience cheered and praised the project with comments such as "sustainability is a crucial issue for all people in the world", "so green, so bold", "green is the way to go", "living our green dreams", "the journey to sustainability is key not only for Asahi but to us all", "plop, plop, Grolsch".

 

Congratulations to our colleagues who worked with vision, commitment, and hope for a better world on these projects.
