Galadari Brothers Group, a pioneering conglomerate in the UAE since 1960, underscored its commitment to environmental practices and social responsibility with the release of its inaugural sustainability report on Friday.
The report focuses on the group’s positive contributions to society and the environment.
“The inaugural sustainability report marks a significant milestone for us, reflecting our unwavering commitment to transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement,” said Mohammed Galadari, Co-Chairman and Group CEO of Galadari Brothers.

The sustainability report — covering the year 2022, across all divisions and business units — offers an in-depth overview of the group’s environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives that are aligned with the UAE Vision 2030 and international agendas like the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Areas covered by the report include renewable energy, waste management, transportation, supply chain, employees’ wellbeing, and more.
The release of the report is also aimed at inspiring other organisations to adopt sustainable practices and contribute to a more environmentally and socially responsible future.
