Our Sustainability Approach
Wesco is recognized as a premier distribution and supply chain services company with a history of success in meeting our customer needs and integrating sustainability into our operations. Over the decades, we have been committed to operating responsibly with our customers, suppliers and the communities in which we operate. Our approach to sustainability is focused on reducing our own environmental impact and empowering our partners to make sustainable choices.
Our 2030 goals include reducing our greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) and reducing waste. We are continuously improving our data collection and aligning our efforts with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), to help ensure our actions have a meaningful impact.
Lean process management and driving continual improvement are integral to Wesco's corporate values. These principles are reinforced every day through daily management in our warehouses, to improvement of functional programs, to kaizen (a Japanese word for continuous improvement) events conducted by cross- functional teams. The Lean principles contribute to our Wesco sustainability programs as employees practice continuous improvement. This applies to operations at our own facilities, to the products and services we offer to our customers in support of their sustainability efforts and to our supplier relationships as we support them in addressing their sustainability challenges and opportunities.
