Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability

Witthal International's Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability (CRS) model has evolved with initiatives that are closely aligned to our core business and is aimed at making a meaningful social impact in the communities in which we operate. Our Vision is to ensure sustainability is achieved and profitable growth continues in a safe, productive environment which is supportive to the communities. We work in close partnerships with public and private entities in emerging economies with the aim of creating positive social and economic changes in these communities.
