Vittia Annual Report 2022

VITTIA Within the scope of our activities, we understand that it is fundamental to develop lasting, constructive relationships and to be attentive to the needs of the communities close to our operations, contributing to promote the locations' development. Interaction and relationship guidelines In all the communities where we operate, we have a positive impact in terms of economic development, whether through job and income generation, tax collection or moving the economy forward, to specific initiatives such as opportunities for young people, donations, and social projects. We reached all of Brazil, taking the Vittia brand to the entire Brazilian territory. The places where we have more interaction and impacts are in Ituverava (SP), where our production unit is located within the city, and in São Joaquim da Barra (SP), where our headquarters are located and we also have a production unit very close by. The relationship is usually carried out with representatives of public bodies and civil and community entities, such as associations, cooperatives, and others. We want to continue advancing in our initiatives and in the management of social issues. It is a process of continuous evolution, with a permanent eye on how we can improve our interaction and communication with communities and our performance in social projects. We believe in a better world for future generations and we seek to follow the path of sustainability/ESG, considering that the engagement of society as a whole, including communities, in sustainable development is essential. We therefore envision opportunities for improvement in structuring management processes that strengthen relationships with the communities surrounding our units and our communication channels. Another important point is that, in 2022, we formally joined the United Nations Global Compact. Among the ten Universal Principles of the Global Compact, the human rights principles establish that companies must: - Support and respect the protection of internationally recognized human rights. - Guarantee their non-participation in human rights violations. These principles reinforce what we have already been practicing in our day-to-day interactions and monitoring of suppliers. Annual Report 2022 99
