Flex Recognized by CDP for Supplier Engagement Leadership

Flex announced that the company has been recognized as a 2021 CDP Supplier Engagement Leader for its actions to measure and limit greenhouse gas emissions across its supply chain. This recognition, a company first, places Flex in the top 8% of companies who disclosed to the global environmental non-profit’s full climate questionnaire.

“Addressing climate change demands collaboration and organizations need to rethink how supplier engagement can help accelerate sustainability,” said Lynn Torrel, chief procurement and supply chain officer at Flex. “As one of the world’s largest diversified manufacturers, we are very proud to be named a 2021 Supplier Engagement Leader, among other sustainability-minded organizations, and energized to continue collaborating with our preferred suppliers to help reduce emissions throughout the value chain.”
 
Flex earned this distinction following CDP’s assessment of performance on supplier engagement using the company’s response to selected questions on governance, targets, scope 3 emissions, and value chain engagement in the CDP climate change questionnaire.

This recognition joins other recent high marks for sustainability leadership and performance, including the company’s inclusion in Dow Jones Sustainability Index’s Sustainability Yearbook for the third consecutive year.
