Message from the
Management
Faced with this
unprecedented
health crisis, we once
again count on the
connection of our
employees to the
purpose of Viveo,
reflected in our tireless
effort to overcome
such challenges.
All these results are a consequence of the dedicated work of our 4.5
thousand employees who incorporate the purpose of Viveo in each
and every activity performed. Confident in our engagement, we ac-
celerated our ESG agenda - Environmental, Social and Governance
which presents priority socio-environmental and governance is-
sues to company stakeholders alongside the commitments ratified
by our shareholders and management body. In a co-creation pro-
cess, which involved collaborators and other publics, we developed
an in-depth study of materiality that encompasses all of our seg-
ments of activity, defining short, medium, and long-term objectives.
With great satisfaction, we were able to clearly see the high level of
engagement of the professionals involved and their impactful de-
liveries such as the replacement of disposable packaging used in
our logistics operation and the transition to an electric vehicles fleet,
an innovation that generated economic, social, and environmental
gains for both Viveo and our customers.
While all this internal transformation was happening, we maintained
our commitment to cope with the pandemic, which in Brazil had its
most acute phase in the first half of the year. Overloaded health
services,
crowded hospitals and shortages of both professionals and supplies
made up the very serious scenario of our sector. Faced with this
unprecedented health crisis, we once again counted on the con-
nection of our employees to the purpose of Viveo, reflected in the
tireless effort to overcome challenges - which included a significant
increase in costs in the global chain of medicines and hospital ma-
terials, a lack of labor in the factories, an increase in the cost of sea
freight, significant exchange rate variation, and urgency of supply.
To provide care for every single life throughout the many different
regions of Brazil, we more than double the production of dispos-
able masks in our factories and imported anesthetics, which were
in shortage in Brazil and essential for the intubation of patients in
critical conditions - all in record time. And these are just two exam-
ples of the various every day and exceptional initiatives that Viveo
undertook in 2021 to support customers and, consequently, society
as a whole. At the same time, we did not overlook for one minute
the health and safety of our team, following all the health protocols
in the performance of our activities, providing medical and psycho-
logical support to those who required special attention by opening
a health clinic of our own.
