"Recognising that sustainable development is now a one-way street for the business community, we are integrating its principles into all aspects of our operations, with the aim of a well-designed corporate governance."

At PLAISIO Computers we are committed to promoting sustainable development through innovative solutions with respect for the environment and society and with the active participation of all stakeholders. With this in mind, we have developed strategies that focus on the three pillars of sustainability: Environment, Society and Governance.

Moving in this direction, we have invested in renewable energy sources, with the inallation of photovoltaic systems at our facility in Magoula, achieving a 45% reduction in energy consumption at the company's most energy-intensive facility, and the expansion of the network of electric vehicle charging stations, constantly aiming to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. We continuously monitor and optimise energy and water consumption, use FSC paper for most of our packaging materials and integrate eco-oriented products into our ranges.

We create jobs, ensuring equal development opportunities for employees and actively contribute to society, especially through the "Plai_Sou" team of PLAISIO employee volunteers and through the PlaisioBots institution, offering realistic and useful topics, such as entrepreneurship, robotics and programming, in order to support children's dreams and help them discover and develop their talents.

Recognising that sustainable development is now a one-way street for the business community, we incorporate its principles into all aspects of our operations, with the aim of a well-designed corporate governance, to manage new business challenges more effectively and have more opportunities to ensure long-term success.

Success on the road to sustainability is a continuous and joint effort. We are proud of the steps we have taken, and we are committed to continue on this path and remain a model business company in the Greek retail industry, creating a more sustainable future for everyone.
