As we recognise pressing issues of climate and social change our priority is to ensure that we implement responsible environmental and social practices on a corporate, fund and asset level in all countries we operate.
Through responsible actions and behaviours, we protect and enhance the environment, build trust among all our stakeholders and operate ethically to the highest standards of corporate governance.
The Pradera Group supports the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and our objective is to integrate many of them to promote awareness, learning and dialogue among all our stakeholders including employees, tenants, suppliers, business partners and communities we operate in.
By undertaking initiatives to promote environmental responsibility, ethical standards, equity and diversity, good labour practices, and sound health and safety measures Pradera has the ability to directly influence nine SDGs
All Pradera Group employees are encouraged to make an effective contribution to protecting the environment by participating in recycling programmes, using natural resources and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The use of environmentally friendly transport and video conferencing as an alternative to business travel, where possible, are positively encouraged.
As a specialist fund and asset manager we strongly believe that sustainable portfolios have significant commercial benefits. Our local asset and property management teams are heavily focussed on sustainability and energy saving, water conservation and waste management programmes which are deeply embedded in our portfolio strategy.
The Pradera Group is a community orientated company, which has a positive impact on local society through the creation of direct and indirect employment, fundraising for charities and launching recycling awareness programmes in a number of countries. By doing so, we have not only contributed to the local economies but also demonstrated our longstanding commitment to sustainability.
The Pradera Group is a leading retail property asset and fund manager in Europe and Asia. As a major investor and manager of retail assets we recognise the impact that our activities can have on the environment and on the communities where we operate.
