FY2022 Sustainability Report - Stamford Tyres Corporation Limited

1. Board statement

We reaffirm our commitment to sustainability with the publication of our sustainability report ("Report") guided by the Global Reporting Initiative ("GRI") Standards: Core option. For this Report, we provide insights into the way we do business, while highlighting our environmental, social, governance factors, economic performance and customer experience (collectively as "Sustainability Factors").

Whilst mindful of our overall profit-oriented objective, we are committed to strike a balance between growth, profit, governance, environment, the development of our people and well-being of our communities to secure the long-term future of Stamford Tyres Corporation Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (the "Group"). This commitment is reflected in our sustainable business strategy and the material Sustainability Factors which are shown in this Report.

A sustainability policy ("SR Policy") covering our sustainability strategies, reporting structure, materiality assessment and processes in identifying and monitoring material Sustainability Factors has been established and serves as a point of reference in the conduct of our sustainability reporting. Under this SR Policy, we will continue to monitor, review and update our material Sustainability Factors from time to time, taking into account the feedback that we receive from our engagement with our stakeholders, organisational and external developments.

Our sustainability framework communicates our commitment towards supporting the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals ("SDGs" or "Global Goals") and is primarily driven by the concerns of our key stakeholders. We work closely with stakeholders in our value chain and their inputs drive our sustainability focus on our material Sustainability Factors and the SDGs as follows:

The global economic outlook remains challenging. To address the challenges arising from the uncertainties due to the Coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19" or "Pandemic"), geo-political situations and intense market competition, the Group has deployed resources and implemented strategies to diversify our product offerings to adapt to the ongoing market changes. We will continue to focus on growing the sales of our key products, improving our sales productivity and upgrade value-added segments such as Stamford Tyres Mart retail chain and truck centres.

We believe that our pro-active business initiatives and operational track record will tide us through this challenging period and allow us to stay on course in our sustainability journey.

The UN Sustainability Agenda provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. At its heart are the 17 SDGs, which form an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing

  • in a global partnership. We have incorporated the SDGs, where appropriate, as a supporting framework to shape and guide our sustainability strategy.

While we have not sought external assurance for this sustainability report, we relied on internal data monitoring and verification to ensure its accuracy. We will work towards external assurance for our future sustainability reports.
