Established in 1999, the ranking is well-regarded and increasingly competitive, as companies in the Russell 1000 index develop their ESG strategies. After considerable investment in creating a transparent and transformative framework for its ESG activity, Berry placed at #97 in the 2022 ranking (out of the 1,000 companies assessed), rising over 100 positions from 2021. Within the materials industry, Berry ranks #11.

The 100 Best Corporate Citizens rankings are based on a comprehensive methodology developed by 3BL Media, assessing 155 ESG factors across eight pillars: Climate Change, Employees, Environment, ESG Performance, Financial, Governance, Human Rights, Stakeholders, and Society. Within the individual pillars, Berry’s biggest rise in the rankings is in the Employees category – up 175 positions from 2021.

“With people at our core, this is an achievement our entire Berry Global organization can be proud of. This recognition reflects the huge strides made across Berry to prioritize ESG at every level of our business, supporting our teams and their safety,” said Jeff Bennett, Chief Human Resources Officer for Berry Global.
