Approach: Our Recipe For Good Growth

We’re proud to once again be named to 3BL Media’s 100 Best Corporate Citizens ranking. We believe that transparency must be a central part of our Recipe for Good strategy with the ever-increasing investment across our people, food & planet pillars.

Yum! Brands Chief Operating Officer and Chief People Officer Tracy Skeans spoke on the “Inside the ICE House” podcast about Yum!’s Recipe for Growth and Good

For the fifth consecutive year, Yum! Brands was named to Dow Jones Sustainability Index for its commitment to citizenship and sustainability throughout its restaurant business.

Yum! and its KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and The Habit Burger Grill brands made progress in critical areas including climate action, food safety and creating greater equity and opportunity across its system.

This year, the company achieved both climate and water scores of an A-, a year-over-year improvement for each response. Yum! also continued expanding its forest reporting beyond paper and palm to include beef.

Yum!’s Global Citizenship & Sustainability Strategy, called its Recipe for Good, is the Company’s roadmap for socially responsible growth, risk management and sustainable stewardship around its three priority areas of people, food and planet.

Yum! Brands, Inc. (NYSE: YUM) today released its annual Global Citizenship & Sustainability Report, highlighting the Company’s strategic investment in socially responsible growth

The recognition demonstrates the continued commitment of KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and The Habit Burger Grill to being good corporate stewards and showing progress through ongoing public reporting and disclosure.

This New Year, millions of Americans have once again committed to a fresh batch of resolutions, though it is statistically proven that most will not stick for more than a couple of weeks. While that fall-off is currently beginning for many, Taco Bell is announcing its set of New Year’s “commitments” that the brand will follow through on in 2019, and beyond. “We decided to scratch the idea of New Year’s resolutions and instead make New Year’s commitments,” said Julie Masino, President of North America at Taco Bell. “From simplifying our ingredients while improving food quality, to creating more new jobs, to improving our recycling efforts, these are just some of our promises to keep doing even better and being even better, and they are promises that we know we will keep.”
