Sustainability
Regenerate the future
We at Anora believe life is to be enjoyed, but not at the cost of our planet. That's why we want to be best in class in sustainability in our industry.
Our Sustainability roadmap 2030 was created based on an extensive materiality analysis conducted in H1 2022. We have defined three key areas for Anora’s ESG-strategy: Planet, People and Product.
Anora's 2023 Sustainability Report >
Committed to set science-based targets
We are committed to set Science-Based Targets. The Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) encourages businesses to transition towards a zero-carbon economy by defining and promoting best practice in science-based target setting.
Planet
Anora’s own production will be carbon neutral by 2030 without compensations and 30% of our grain-based spirits regeneratively farmed. Our production is based on circular economy. We enhance biodiversity and use our planet’s water resources cautiously: we protect ground-water areas corresponding to 1,500 football fields. We are committed to science-based targets and aim for 38% reduction of scopes 1–3 in 2030 and net-zero in 2050.
People
Anora is as an inclusive and safe workplace that represents the diversity, equity and progressiveness of Nordic culture. We aim for zero accidents and a strong safety culture. Our value chain is fair and transparent; we source sustainably and protect human rights.
Product
Anora drives sustainable drinking culture. We offer more non or low alcoholic beverages and support shift to responsible drinking. We drive the transition to climate-smart packaging and increase the share of Anora’s sustainable choice products.

Regeneratively farmed barley from the Aila-Korpela farm to Koskenkorva distillery
Anora aims to increase the use of regeneratively farmed barley in spirit production. Veli-Pekka and Noora Aila are Anora’s contract farmers who have transitioned to using regenerative farming practices.
Koskenkorva distillery is a forerunner in the circular economy
The Koskenkorva distillery operates based on the principles of the bio and circular economy: 100% of the grain is utilised. This brought Anora the Green Company of the Year award in 2018.
Clean groundwater guarantees the quality of our products
Protecting the more than 1,000-hectare area at Rajamäki owned by Anora and the groundwater beneath it, plays an important role in ensuring the high quality of Anora's products.
Aiming for zero accidents at the Rajamäki plant
Following the Rajamäki plant’s renewal process, Anora has placed increasing emphasis on the plant serving as an example of occupational safety.
