AIM-Progress is pleased to announce that Francis West, Director of Social Sustainability with Tetra Pak, has joined our Leadership Team to help drive the AIM-Progress future strategy.

At a time when supply chain due diligence legislative frameworks and industry efforts are expanding and the role of suppliers is being scrutinised by brands, Francis will represent the voice of our supplier membership in AIM-Progress. This is in addition to providing his extensive knowledge of human rights due diligence gained from his time with Tetra Pak, Shift and UNICEF. Francis will certainly be a major asset to the AIM-Progress leadership.

Francis West

“Collaboration between brands and suppliers is fundamental to quality human rights due diligence that can help tackle inequality and drive better outcomes for people across global value chains. AIM-Progress has a central role to play in building the capacity of its members and fostering partnerships within the industry to deliver on expanding regulatory requirements, our respective responsibilities under the UN Guiding Principles and in supporting a Just Transition. I’m delighted to be able to contribute to AIM-Progress’s exciting work.” Francis West, Tetra Pak

Our Leadership Team members Genevieve Taft-Vazquez (The Coca-Cola Company), Shannon Hess (The Clorox Company), Phyllis Kong (Ferrero), Rachel Cowburn-Walden (Unilever), Bethany Fitzgerald (The Hershey Company), Ron Jacoby (Colgate-Palmolive) and Yann Wyss (Nestlé) join us in welcoming Francis to the AIM-Progress Leadership Team
