Current global issues such as the pandemic, climate change, and world conflicts clearly show us that business organizations should not only focus on financial metrics but also take charge of solving the issues facing our future generations, by integrating ESG into business operations.

MCS Group recognizes this duty by expanding our previous Corporate Social Responsibility Report into our first Sustainability Report, with the key metrics on our progress in implementing the environmental, social, and governance.

Through our first sustainability report, we aimed to highlight our sustainable operations and production, our approach to engaging with stakeholders, such as our employees, customers, and suppliers, as well as our approaches to social well-being, volunteering, partnership, and socially responsible activities.

One of the main highlights of the works included in the report was the assessment of the greenhouse gas inventory conducted at some MCS Group subsidiaries, with the further goal of contributing to Mongolia’s goal of mitigating the greenhouse gas emissions of 22.7 by 2030.

We have also conducted an external energy audit per “The Energy Conservation Law of Mongolia”, and in compliance with its requirements on energy management standards. Through the implementation of energy-efficient technologies, we achieved a certain conservation of energy in 2021. Furthermore, we aim to reduce fuel consumption by effectively tracking the distribution routes using a smart GPS and switching towards Euro-5 diesel engines.
