RETAIL VALUE CREATION PROCESS
Our Integrated Report is designed to report on how our resources contribute through our retail value creation model to deliver our vision to make sustainable living easy and affordable for everyone. This is demonstrated through the six capitals as shown opposite and detailed further in this report.
This Integrated Report has been prepared using the International Integrated Reporting Council’s International Integrated Reporting <IR> Framework. Integrated Reporting aims to:
- Improve the quality of information available to providers of financial capital;
- Promote a more cohesive and efficient approach to corporate reporting;
- Enhance accountability and stewardship for the broad base of capitals (inputs); and
- Support integrated thinking, decision-making and actions that focus on the creation of value over the short, medium and long term.
At the centre of our Integrated Reporting is the retail value creation model, which details the capitals, or inputs, we draw upon, our strategy and business activities, and the outputs and outcomes we have delivered in FY22. Refer to the following pages for further details on each of these capitals.
In 2021 we also reported under the Global Reporting Initiatives (GRI) reporting framework for the first time, and we continue with this most widely used global sustainability reporting standard this year. Refer to the Sustainability section for further information on the GRI reporting framework, the Group’s materiality assessment and the GRI content index.
The Group’s Board and Management have established internal preparation and quality control processes to ensure the quality and integrity of this report. While we have not sought external audit or assurance for the non-financial information contained throughout this Integrated Report, we have received limited assurance on selected standards of the Group’s GRI disclosures as well as our carbon emissions and energy consumption which are audited by Toitū Envirocare.
