Purpose and ESG Services
Poland is entering a new era of responsibility. Sustainability and ESG are no longer an option. They are essential for building trust, securing investments, and staying competitive. Yet for many international brands, the Polish market presents unique ESG challenges: shifting regulations, rising consumer expectations, and the need for locally relevant strategies. As your trusted experts, we can guide your team through every step of your sustainability journey!
We help build real Environmental, Social, and Governance impact
Our Purpose and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) services go beyond ticking boxes. We help you design a strategy that meets Polish and EU reporting requirements like CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive), TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures), and ISSB (International Sustainability Standards Board).
We also help you to build genuine long-term value for your business, your stakeholders, and society. All these while aligning with your targets and overall approach to sustainability.
Why ESG & purpose matter in Poland?
Polish regulators, investors, and customers demand transparent and credible ESG commitments. According to the EU’s CSRD directive, from 2025 ESG reporting is mandatory for all large companies meeting at least two of the following three criteria: employing at least 250 people, generating annual revenues of at least 80 million euros, or holding total assets of at least 40 million euros.
Also, according to the latest IAB Polska survey, over 72% of Poles expect brands to take a stand on social, environmental, and employee topics. 64% of consumers declare that sustainability issues are important to them when shopping online (“Responsible e-commerce” report).
At the same time, nearly half of Polish clients believe that today’s brand communication is overloaded with unnecessary ecological messaging (EKObarometr). This issue has also been addressed by the European Union, which introduced the so-called Greenwashing Directive (guidelines for companies on how to conduct transparent marketing communication).
Now, Failing to address purpose and ESG issues is no longer an option. It risks reputational damage, loss of trust, and limited access to sustainable finance. Meanwhile, companies with ESG strategies and transparent sustainability reporting gain a competitive edge on the Polish market.

We also help you communicate your ESG priorities effectively to internal and external audiences, including regulatory bodies and senior leaders.
- During implementation, we support your ESG team through internal guidelines and stakeholder engagement, helping you develop and implement sustainable business practices and transform your operations for a sustainable future.
