Regulatory News:
The GRESB1, which assesses the Environmental, Social, and
Governance (ESG) practices of more than 2,000 companies in the real
estate and building sectors worldwide, has once again recognized
Mercialys (Paris:MERY) which retains its "5-Star
Green Star" status. This excellent result reflects the
implementation of actions to reduce the environmental footprint of
the Company's assets as part of its "4 Fair Impacts For 2030"
strategy.
Mercialys, a leading real estate company in accessible retail,
received a score of 91 out of 100, an improvement of one point
compared to the previous year. This score is significantly higher
than the average score of GRESB respondents, which stood at 87/100
in 2024.
The company also retains its "5-Star Green Star" status, the
highest category of the benchmark, for the 8th consecutive year,
placing it in the quintile of the top-performing companies.
The points particularly praised by GRESB this year include:
- the clarity of communication on its sustainability objectives,
the transparency of the results achieved, and the robustness of the
reporting processes
- the reduction of the environmental footprint of its assets
(reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, reduction in water
consumption)
This result reflects Mercialys's strong commitment to
sustainable management of its assets. The improvement in the GRESB
score is the result of the continuous and determined work of the
company’s teams to address current environmental and social
challenges, in collaboration with its stakeholders.
