EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., Dec. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Winnebago Industries, Inc. (NYSE:WGO), a leading outdoor lifestyle product manufacturer, has published its 2023 Corporate Responsibility Report highlighting the company's progress efforts to build a sustainable and equitable future.
"At Winnebago Industries, we want the outdoors to continue to be a place to find health, happiness and connection, so we hold close the imperative to protect and preserve our environment for future generations," said Winnebago Industries President and CEO, Michael Happe. "Through the hard work, dedication, and innovation of team members across our family of premium brands including Winnebago, Grand Design, Chris-Craft, Newmar, and Barletta, we are pleased to continue to make meaningful progress toward our ambitious environmental and social goals."
This is the fifth year Winnebago Industries has released its corporate responsibility report. The report aligns with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Universal Standards and features an index aligned with recommendations from the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TFCD), as well as the company's first Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) index.
Highlights of Winnebago Industries' progress include:
Following an intensive ESG materiality assessment in 2018 and the evolving footprint of the company's operations, Winnebago Industries' corporate responsibility efforts are currently focused on nine priorities: ethics and integrity; safety; people; diversity, equity, and inclusion; community; waste; emissions; product stewardship; and water.
"Our corporate responsibility efforts are the cornerstone of our sustainable business growth and long-term profitability, and they fuel our ultimate purpose to help people explore the outdoors, enabling extraordinary experiences as they travel, live, work and play," said Stacy Bogart, Winnebago Industries' General Counsel, and corporate responsibility lead. "While these priorities continue to be relevant to our business, we also recognize that as our footprint expands, so does our responsibility. We plan to refresh our materiality assessment in 2024."
