Quote
“LADOL is a sustainable industrial special economic zone operating in Lagos, Nigeria. The Zone was developed out of a disused swamp in 2006 and built up into a logistics base and shipyard. LADOL is currently expanding to service a wide range of industries from agriculture to mini-solar grid companies. Adhering to the UN’s 17 SDG’s is built into LADOL’s DNA, i.e. all the companies’ policies, procedures and work instructions. The UN Global Compact and the Chief Financial Officers Taskforce is therefore a natural fit for our company. This is a group where we can share global best practice and encourage others to change their business models to be in line with achieving the 17 SDGs, not just because it’s the right thing to do socially but more importantly because it’s the right thing to do financially. CFO’s should be at the forefront of driving sustainable ventures and solutions as the most profitable and the least risky way to do business.”
