B-Sustainable 2024 results: concrete progress for customer experience
Launched in 2022, the B-Sustainable program is based on three pillars: growing up ethically, acting as a crew and preserving the oceans. The main results for 2024 illustrate the momentum of continuous transformation driven by the Group's teams: reducing carbon emissions, increasing the use of sustainable materials, innovating to serve customer needs, raising employee awareness and promoting diversity.
They testify to Groupe Beneteau's ambition to be a benchmark player in sustainable and accessible yachting, even in a more demanding economic context.
"The pleasure of sailing can no longer ignore environmental issues. We need to combine emotion, innovation and responsibility." says Gianguido Girotti, boat division’s general manager.
