Bacardi Limited, in its just-released Annual Report on Corporate Responsibility (CR), announced new gains in ongoing efforts to decrease its impact on the environment. Family-owned Bacardi reduced energy use by more than 25 percent and water use by an impressive 54 percent, compared to results in the Company's first CR Report in 2006. The water Bacardi saved is equivalent to 10.3 million people showering.
These improvements are among the significant achievements highlighted in the Bacardi Limited CR Report 2013. Titled Our Spirit is Clear, the report details the Company's many CR activities during its 2013 fiscal year, which ran from April 1, 2012, to March 31, 2013.
