Environmental Stewardship

At Brown-Forman Corporation, we believe sound environmental performance supports our commitment to be responsible in everything we do. From as early as the 1950s, Brown-Forman has implemented and executed environmental stewardship activities that go beyond compliance requirements in order to minimize our environmental footprint throughout each phase of our products' life cycle.

Our environmental performance incorporates both environmental compliance and stewardship elements that work together to consume fewer natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and recover and reuse resources more extensively.

We monitor and assess the environmental impact of our operations and actions, and are committed to measurable improvement in the areas of waste and materials reductions, energy management, and water conservation and protection.
