Remaining committed to its vision, CHARALAMBIDES CHRISTIS also focuses on the positive impact of the company on Cypriot society. As a Cypriot-owned company, it aims to promote messages of hope and optimism for the future of the country. To achieve this goal, CHARALAMBIDES CHRISTIS has put into practice a comprehensive Corporate Social Responsibility programme, named SYMMETOCHI (participation). “SYMMETOCHI” was developed following research that highlighted the need for greater care and support for children during difficult economic times. Over its ten years of operation, the programme has grown into an initiative of social solidarity and practical support, centred on children and young people. Its actions focus on improving conditions related to hygiene, nutrition, education, learning opportunities and recreation. The CSR programme of Charalambides Christis also includes financial support for initiatives in primary schools, the provision of free milk to associations of large families and to social grocery stores as well as the daily distribution of chocolate milk to children in need in primary schools and beyond. With Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance principles at the core of its strategy, Charalambides Christis has designed a comprehensive ESG programme that extends across the entire ecosystem of the company. In line with the modern model of sustainable development and alongside the SYMMETOCHI initiative, the company aims to create added social value by supporting the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
