Sustainability and profitability have long been perceived as opposing ideas. But the truth is they go hand in hand. Running a business that is sustainability focused on people, planet and purpose, will ultimately improve your bottom line - your profit - along with your progress!

Greg Bignall, CEDA's Business Development Manager says " It's important to remember, that no matter how big or small your business, or what change you're making, it's never too small to make a difference. SMEs account for the vast majority of businesses globally and represent 97% of all businesses in New Zealand. With these numbers, small sustainable changes across all SMEs could have a huge impact on our collective progress, and progress is measured in many forms."
