November 16, 2021 /3BL Media/ - Mondelēz International, Inc. (Nasdaq: MDLZ) advanced its commitment to helping create a circular economy for plastic by joining Circulate Capital Ocean Fund (CCOF) as a limited partner and making an investment in CCOF supporting scalable business solutions to help develop infrastructure for the collecting, sorting and recycling of plastic waste, including flexible films. The goal of this investment, which is part of Mondelēz International’s Sustainable Futures impact investing platform, is to enhance focus on the physical collection of flexible films – lightweight, multi-layer plastics used by the snacking industry – that have traditionally been more difficult to collect, sort, recycle and ultimately reuse.

CCOF是一项投资基金，致力于解决印度和东南亚的塑料挑战，其投资者包括一些世界领先的消费者包装公司。该基金为印度，印度尼西亚，泰国，越南和菲律宾的废物管理，回收和循环经济初创企业以及中小型企业提供融资。CCOF帮助识别收集和回收解决方案，催化资本来扩展和复制这些解决方案，并将这些企业与世界领先的公司联系起来。预计MondelēzInternational对CCOF的投资将为企业提供资金，该企业支持该公司收集比目前在印度和东南亚公司生产的公司更多的塑料废物，并将进一步投资于灵活的塑料废物收集，回收和基础设施企业。

“This investment marks a pivotal step forward in our contribution to a circular economy for plastics and is a clear demonstration of our long-term goal of net zero waste,” said Dirk Van de Put, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mondelēz International, Inc. “As part of our ambition to become a more sustainable snacking company, this partnership will help fund businesses that are trying to fill systemic gaps in the collection, sorting and reuse of plastic waste, including flexible film."

“我们很高兴与食品和饮料行业的世界领导者MondelēzInternational合作。他们对循环资本海洋基金的投资将使我们能够通过位于南亚和东南亚的企业提供创新解决方案来打击塑料废物并促进循环经济的资金来工作。。“将MondelēzInternational添加到我们尊敬的全球合作伙伴名单中，反映了我们的投资组合公司迄今为止所产生的重大影响。到2030年，这项额外的催化资本还将帮助CCOF达到我们预期的环境和经济影响，其中包括预防超过1300万吨塑料污染泄漏以及至少1700万吨CO2E避免。”
