Greater sustainability focus in ICA Gruppen’s management and board

To further strengthen ICA’s sustainability work, Kerstin Lindvall has been named
Chief Corporate Responsibility Officer and as a member of ICA Gruppen’s
Management Team. In conjunction with this a sustainability committee is being
formed in ICA Gruppen’s board to increase focus on CR issues.
“Our ambition is to be a leader in corporate responsibility, an area in which we
currently have a prominent position. But to ensure a sustainability perspective
on all matters, we have now brought Kerstin onto ICA Gruppen’s management team
and are creating a board committee dedicated to these issues,” comments Per
Strömberg, President and CEO of ICA Gruppen.

The Sustainability Committee’s duties are grounded in the Corporate Governance
Code’s instructions on a board’s responsibility for setting guidelines for the
company’s role in society. Among other duties, the committee will draft policies
for business ethics and sustainability, set the framework for the company’s
sustainability reporting (annual and quarterly), and monitor the company’s work
with business ethics and sustainability.

Kerstin Lindvall joined ICA in 1997 and has served as SVP Corporate
Responsibility for ICA Sweden since 2009.
