Sustainability at Sharp Mint Limited

In the Indian business ethos, Shubh Laabh (Auspiciousness & Profitability respectively) signifies earning wealth ethically and responsibly. At Sharp, this means not just maximizing profits but ensuring sustainability, ethical practices, and societal well-being. True profit (Laabh) is considered auspicious (Shubh) when it contributes to the environment, employees, and society, rather than being solely for personal or corporate gain.

At Sharp Mint Limited, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to creating a positive impact on people, the planet, and our business by embedding responsible practices across our operations and value chain. Our vision is to deliver high-quality natural mint products while minimizing environmental impact, promoting social equity, and upholding the highest standards of ethical governance.

Key Pillars of Our Sustainability Vision:

  • Planet: Protecting ecosystems and reducing emissions.
  • People: Promoting well-being, inclusion, and human rights.
  • Prosperity: Ensuring progress transparency, ethics and innovation in every process.
