Factsheet: Australian Beverages Council Sugar Reduction Pledge Report
The Australian Beverages Council Limited (ABCL) has announced a pledge to reduce sugar in the non-alcoholic beverage industry by 20 per cent by 2025
At our December Board meeting it was suggested and agreed that ABECS should make a contribution towards assisting the many people being affected by the prolonged countrywide drought.Not long after that meeting the incredible, multi-state bushfires started to take effect; however, the Directors agreed that our contribution should still be focused on drought relief. Subsequently, we selected Drought Angels as the best avenue for our $10,000 donation, made on behalf of all members.The acknowledgement letter from Drought Angels is shown below.
