This emphasis on a multicultural mindset is critical to the future of our business, our marketing and communications strategies and our actions as employees.

“We encourage strong personal and professional networks among our teams to foster a sense of value and connectivity. In North America we have nine (9) Business Resource Groups (BRGs) active in empowering and connecting our employee community and strengthening access to our diverse consumer base.
