Sustainability growth—for our partners, our people and the planet
Our sustainability strategies center on the United Nations Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs) as well as our Innovation with Purpose sustainability program. Sustainability guides everything we do as a company and how we plan for the future. Leveraging our extensive supply chain advantages and operational efficiencies, we drive our clients’ business success while minimizing waste for long-term benefit.

Maximizing sustainability through leading technology
We know from experience that data-driven and insight-led changes lead to the best possible sustainability outcomes. Our proprietary suite of technology and data-rich products and services support our clients, our organization and our strategic supplier partners in achieving sustainability goals.
Hub
Our Hub platform generates CO2 impact data at the planning stage, allowing our clients to make informed decisions about campaign tactics and channel choice. HH Global is the first creative production and procurement partner in the world to do this on such a scale, embedding our Environmental Calculator engine as part of our standard operating model.
AI-powered dataset
Supplementing this CO2 insight is an AI-powered dataset. As more data is processed, our technology continually delivers to our clients a more refined output, enabling predictive CO2 impact modeling to support and deliver long-term client insight and benefit.
Sustainable Procurement Framework
Our Sustainable Procurement Framework (SPF) is another market first, using technology and data to scale best practices across our global supply chain. By combining HH Global supplier data with research and insights from our partners, we have created a first-of-its-kind sustainable supply chain framework. The SPF helps our supply chain partners assess their current sustainability maturity. SPF also helps them progress through educational resources, best practice sharing and knowledge from HH Global’s experiences.
Supply chain partner recognition of success is a key part of the SPF, as well as powering continuous improvement and reducing risk profiles. With the idea that “a rising tide lifts all boats,” the SPF is clearly focused on measurable outcomes and progress towards the United Nations SDGs.
