- Sands China has been ranked in the Top 1% for ESG performance by S&P Global in 2025.
- The company also earned “Industry Mover” distinction – awarded to only one company in each industry – in the China edition.
Sands China has reinforced its position as a leading company in sustainability, earning Top 1% rankings in both the Global and China editions of the “S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook 2025”, highlighting the company’s outstanding achievements in environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance.
Notably, Sands China received the “Industry Mover” distinction in the China edition – an accolade awarded to only one company per industry for the strongest year-on-year improvement.
The S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook is among the world’s most respected benchmarks for evaluating business sustainability. For the 2025 China edition, S&P Global assessed more than 1,600 companies from mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau across 60 industries. Sands China ranked among just 18 companies to achieve a Top 1% score, marking its third consecutive year on this elite list. Its recognition as “Industry Mover” was driven by a more than 7% increase in its Corporate Sustainability Assessment score, the largest improvement in its sector.
Globally, over 7,690 companies were assessed, with only 65 achieving a Top 1% ranking in their industry. This marks the second consecutive year Sands China has achieved this distinction worldwide.
Grant Chum, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director of Sands China, credited the company’s achievements to the dedication of its team, suppliers and community partners, and highlighted initiatives such as 2.3 million hours of workforce training in 2024 and a 17.5% reduction in carbon emissions.
Sands China’s commitment to sustainable development is further demonstrated through programs like Sands ECO360, Sands Cares and the Sands China Academy, helping to create lasting value for the Macau community.
