Out approach to CSR
Responsible for our environment
Sustainable development and social activity are embedded in Allegro's DNA, and responsibility for our customers, merchants, and employees, as well as care for the environment are our most important commitments.
Since the very beginning, Allegro has been proving that technology not only makes shopping easier and supports business development, but also helps solve many problems of the contemporary world. Allegro pursues its social mission in partnership with over 100 public benefit organizations, foundations and individuals through charity activities and as part of our Allegro All For Planet Foundation, which promotes pro-health and pro-environmental attitudes.
Our CSR strategy
In 2018–2019, we executed social and environmental activities pursuant to the 2017–2019 CSR Strategy (Corporate Social Responsibility), in which we organized our commitments under 5 pillars of responsibility with supreme commitment of acting ethically and being fully transparent:
- we are a creative and innovative workplace
- we care about our customers
- we focus on responsible cooperation in business
- we keep investing in communities
- we promote pro-health and pro-environmental attitudes
By the end of 2019, we had completed almost all of the goals of the CSR strategy for 2017–2019.
In 2020,
Allegro created the role of the Public Affairs and Sustainability Manager, who will be responsible for the
development, implementation, execution, and reporting of CSR activities.
As we are publishing this report in 2020, we need to mention Allegro's sustainable strategy for the next three years 2020-2023. In the refreshed approach, we focus more on greening our operations while constantly raising ambitions and improving our performance in other areas that are important to our employees and other stakeholders. The new strategy has been divided into four pillars to be aligned with the overall strategy of Allegro. Each pillar is dedicated to one key stakeholder group: customers, merchants/ delivery companies, communities, and employees. Every pillar has a few associated sub-pillars, combining activities that work towards a similar objective.
| Pillar | Pillar stakeholder | Activities aimed at the assumed goal |
