Water Risk Assessment for Suppliers

Charoen Pokphand Group has collected data and conducted water risk assessments on Critical Tier 1 Suppliers using Aqueduct Water Risk Atlas,

an internationally recognized tool for assessing water stress levels, to analyze data on water sources, water consumption, and potential risks from water shortage in each area for Critical Tier 1 Suppliers in order to accurately identify risks that may affect production processes and operations. This has enabled the Group and Critical Tier 1 Suppliers to effectively manage and plan water resource usage, especially in high-risk areas. It has also contributed to reducing the impact of water shortage and enhancing sustainability in the value chain.

In 2024, the Group performed water risk assessments on our Critical Tier 1 Suppliers. Based on the assessment results, 58% of Critical Tier 1 Suppliers were located in water stressed areas. The Group will place priority on these suppliers in order to support their water management approach.
