In 2015, Rexel conducted a materiality assessment to identify the expectations of both its internal and external stakeholders. This made it possible to identify the priority actions that form the pillars of the Group's sustainable development approach.
For each of these priorities, the Group set a goal to be reached by 2020. Two of the three goals were achieved in 2017:
> Double the sales of energy efficient products and solutions (vs. 2011).
> Reduce its operations' greenhouse gas emissions by 30% (vs. 2010).
The third goal, i.e. assess its suppliers' CSR performance for up to 80% of its direct purchases (in value), is on track. By the end of 2017, 47% of the Group's direct purchase volume had been assessed.
