At Karo, our commitments are the cornerstones of our mission to create healthier and more sustainable societies
We are dedicated to enhancing health and wellbeing, protecting the environment, and fostering a fair society. Guided by these principles, we strive to make a positive impact on people’s lives and the world around us.
Contributing to a Healthier Society
Karo wants to contribute to creating healthy and sustainable societies for the future. To make this happen, we have defined a set of key commitments that drive and guide our daily work:
Society
We want to help raise the general standard of health and wellbeing in society by offering excellent healthcare products and services. We work to increase awareness and education around everyday healthcare – and combat social stigma – to make sure everyday health issues are addressed and treated.
Environment
We make a continuous effort to optimise our value chains. This includes working closely with our suppliers and customers to reduce waste and minimise the environmental impact of our business activities.
Partners
We want to be a trusted partner for all our stakeholders – customers, suppliers, service providers, authorities, etc. For all of them, we act as effective problem solvers with a win-win mindset and a high level of integrity.
Customers and Healthcare Professionals
We engage with customers and healthcare professionals in each of our markets to make sure we provide the educational materials and activities that meet consumer needs. The insights we gather inspire product development as well as new services and support for end users.
Consumers
We want to raise awareness about treatment options across all of our everyday healthcare categories. That’s how we contribute to improving quality of life and breaking down the barriers that may be preventing people from treating their everyday health issues. By engaging with consumers, we also learn more about their needs – insights which we use to improve our commercial offerings and give them an even better user experience.
Employees
We want to attract people with a strong entrepreneurial spirit. We work to create a dynamic workplace where collective intelligence, diverse backgrounds and extensive experience come together to support Karo’s purpose. As a flat and non-bureaucratic organisation we empower people to make their own decisions.
Shareholders
We want to provide best-in-class risk-adjusted financial returns for our owners, and deliver on the promises we make to the market. We will deliver on our shareholder commitment by executing our strategy and delivering on our purpose.
Our Responsibility Policies
Our key commitments are guided by clear policies related to the environment, social responsibility, and our business ethics. Our policies also ensure that all our processes meet Karo’s requirements in terms of legal requirements, quality assurance, and patient safety for our entire product portfolio.
