For information on the company's sustainability efforts, see the company's website under 'Sustainability Efforts of the G-7 Group.' The main efforts are classified from the ESG perspective as follows: (1) Environment The company group uses electric cars (electric vehicles, fuel cell vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles/hybrid vehicles, etc.) for its business vehicles and has achieved LED lighting at its stores. In addition, it is actively working on the effective use of solar energy by installing solar panels on the new office building completed in 2021, contributing to decarbonization through the reduction and suppression of CO2 emissions. The company also considers the environment by actively managing store inventory to reduce waste products and properly sort and dispose of waste. For example, at 'Autobacs' stores, waste tires collected from customers are recycled by specialist companies and reused as an energy source, and waste oil and batteries are sorted by material and recycled as a resource through designated agencies. (2) Society Once a year, the company group conducts a 'food drive' to donate food, clothing, daily necessities, etc. to socially vulnerable people. In addition, G-7 Super Mart aims to create a diverse work environment and employs people with disabilities through a disability employment support service company, cultivates vegetables at a farm and provides the harvest to 'children's cafeterias' free of charge. Going forward, the company intends to focus more on health and welfare activities. It is also working on health management and plans to introduce health equipment in its head office in 2023 to support its employees' health. (3) Governance The company group is working on management that maximizes shareholder value and is aware of the importance of corporate ethics, aiming to improve the soundness of management by establishing corporate governance, compliance systems, and risk management systems. It holds regular meetings of the committee to grasp the current situation, address any problems, and work to improve them.
