New framework for greener financing

In April 2021, Lantmännen launched its first framework for green financing and in March 2024 an updated framework for green bonds was published. The updated framework is adapted to the latest market standards and aims to increase transparency in Lantmännen's sustainability work in relation to green bonds for both investors and other stakeholders. The issuance of green bonds enables Lantmännen to invest in sustainable projects to meet the climate strategy and support sustainable primary production with increased yield and climate neutrality by 2050.

The Green Bond Framework defines the investments that are eligible for financing of green bonds issued by Lantmännen. Lantmännen has worked together with Danske Bank to develop the framework and S&P Global has conducted an external review of the framework. Both documents are publicly available here on our website, along with the annual Green Bond reports.
