Value creation

for positive impact

At Beckers, value creation goes beyond growth and profit optimization. We think of value in the true sense of the word, which is why our success is equally determined by financial and non-financial indicators.

Measuring what really matters

Evolving how we measure value in terms of human and environmental capital is a long-term and complex process. However, it is essential to help prioritize areas where our sustainability strategy needs to further develop. Both our Double Materiality Assessment and Value Creation Model ensure that our decisions and priorities mitigate our negative impacts and are in line with how we optimize value creation in the future.

Our value creation

By including economic, environmental and social considerations when measuring value, we make more informed and responsible business decisions and enable the optimal use of resources. In a constantly changing world, it is important to understand the risks and opportunities that our environmental and societal impacts involve and set an example for accountability and transparency.

The Lindéngruppen Value Creation Model

Our owner Lindéngruppen uses a Value Creation Model that focuses on true value creation. The model includes net income as well as externalities that can be monetized: Salaries and pay, Taxes and subsidies, Carbon emissions, Waste, Occupational health and safety and Gender equality. The externalities are among those that have the greatest impact on our overall value creation and can mitigate our negative impacts. This model will be essential in enabling us to track our progress on our Green Lights Strategy.
