Benchmark against other companies ‘The indexes are important because they enable us to measure our performance against other global companies. They are not only of value to investors but also other stakeholders. Some of our major customers are listed on the indexes, and our high ranking makes us more attractive as a first choice supplier,' says Soren Vogelsang, VP of Sustainable Development. Selected as the only food ingredients supplier Companies are selected on their financial, social and environmental performance. Out of the 53 companies listed in the Dow Jones World food and beverage sector only 7 companies are chosen for the sustainability indexes, with Danisco being the only business-to-business supplier.
