GS1 Portugal led a hybrid event on “Circular Economy & Sustainability” with the presence of the President of the Portuguese Republic.
On 17th of December 2020, GS1 Portugal led the 5th edition of "A chat with" hybrid events series, on this occasion on "Circular Economy & Sustainability". This remarkable panel discussion with speakers from the key sustainability and recycling players in Portugal was facilitated by a specialized journalist from a well-known Portuguese lay magazine. The two companies awarded with the first Lean & Green stars ever attributed in Portugal, two of the major companies operating in Portugal – Delta Cafés and Nestlé Portugal - joined the panel discussion.
To symbolically award these two winning companies with the first star – Delta Cafés and Nestlé –, as well as the logistics company (Santos e Vale) awarded with the first Lean & Green prize, GS1 Portugal was honoured to host His Excellency the President of the Portuguese Republic, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, who also visited the Data Lab, a new data quality facility, built at GS1 Portugal in 2019. Without "letting the cat out of the bag" we would underline a couple of highlights from the His Excellency President's speech: "At GS1 Portugal I feel like at home" and "Nothing is structural, if not sustainable".
