More and more, consumers, processors, suppliers and retailers are making buying decisions based on a company’s commitment to environmental, social and governance principles. In a recent Food Institute podcast, Erica Kuhlmann, BMO Commercial Bank’s Head of Food, Consumer and Agribusiness; Jonathan Hackett, BMO’s Head of Sustainable Finance; and Marc Khouzami, Managing Director of BMO’s Impact Investment Fund, offered their perspectives on how ESG impacts everything from agriculture production to employee recruitment to access to capital for companies in the food sector.

In this episode:

  • How a company’s ESG plans ultimately affects their access to capital and cost of capital.

  • The “E” in “ESG.” How companies in the food sector can undertake initiatives that improve the “E” and experience improved profitability as a result.

  • The “S” in “ESG” that deals with an operation’s relationships with its employees, suppliers, customers, and the communities where it operates. For example, are working conditions safe and healthy for employees? 

  • The “G” in “ESG”. Governance deals with a company’s leadership and internal controls among other factors. For example, does the operation have conflicts of interest, or work with suppliers that have conflicts of interest?


Sustainability Leaders podcast is live on all major channels including AppleGoogle and Spotify
