At Ingham’s, we aim to ensure that we respect the environment in which we operate, minimise our impact upon natural resources, and continue to work towards greater sustainability.
We aim to carry out our business in a responsible and ethical manner, and this principle is echoed in our company values.
Sustainability is about meeting our needs today without affecting the ability of future generations to meet their needs.
Even though chicken production has a small environmental footprint (compared to other land-based animal production systems) we have a responsibility to reduce our impact on the environment as much as we can, to do more with less, and work in a sustainable way.
We also want to be able to adapt quickly to the challenges of a changing climate and respond to community and consumer expectations.
