Corporate social responsibility: what we are doing

Sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR) are not empty words at Magnus Business Gifts. They are in the DNA of our manager, Ann Magnus, and are also a priority for everyone working for the company.

This translates into a bold CSR policy, in which transparency plays an important part. One way we ensure transparency is by thorough internal and external communication, such as social media. We use social media platforms mainly to highlight our products and promotions, but also to communicate about our sustainability efforts. We do this on the basis of the UN’s 17 sustainability goals, also known as the 17 SDGs. In this report, we discuss the efforts we made in 2019, 2020 and 2021 and explain our planned and partially realized efforts for 2022.

We encourage working from home to limit commuting, thereby restricting our CO² emissions;
Our new logistics partner works according to the OOOT principle: One Order, One Tree. So for every delivery, 1 tree is planted by Trees for the Future;

Including more and more environmentally-friendly and recycled products in our range. Disposable plastic has been replaced by reusable alternatives that do not pollute the oceans or are less polluting;
Setting up a bee hotel in wildflower meadows near our new office. We give pots of honey from the beehives to our customers as a corporate gift.

Integrating environmentally-conscious choices in our building, including a heat pump, solar panels, ventilation, solar shading, extra insulation on top of the mandatory insulation (24 cm instead of 18 cm) and the installation of a water filter system that is directly connected to the water supply.

Prosperity

Despite a turbulent period following the transfer of the company to the next generation and the COVID 19 crisis, we achieved steady growth, and in 2021 even significant growth.

It was perhaps thanks to COVID that we decided to change direction and thoroughly review our business model. We are moving away from the idea of doing everything in-house and at our own location. 2021 was a challenging year in that regard. For example, the showroom, which had only been visited sporadically by customers in recent years, has now disappeared, replaced by our online catalogue. This is a new, more efficient way of working that delivers clear results. Moreover, the focus within our customer base has also changed. We’re now focusing more on customers who attach importance to solid, sustainable products.

Prosperity or, in other words, wealth. Not only for ourselves, but also for others. We achieve this in a variety of ways:

Our employees are paid a salary in accordance with the statutory salary scales (or better) and receive fringe benefits such as hospitalization insurance.
We also keep up with the latest developments at board level and in terms of legislation by continuously training as management, including through courses at Guberna.
In order to give young people the necessary opportunities, we offer internships every year. These represent important extra human resources, in particular for our communication and administration department.
We work together with the activation centre at the psychiatric centre in Tienen and the tailor-made company BWB Londerzeel. This is an ideal way to create opportunities for people who may be struggling to find work.

Peace

The monitoring and measurement of customer satisfaction is part of our CSR policy. And it’s not only our customers who are important; all of our stakeholders are equally indispensable to our company. That’s why we mapped them all in a comprehensive stakeholder analysis exercise that now underpins our strategic short-, medium- and long-term objectives.

Our GDPR procedures and the associated regular checks protect our customers and contacts against the misuse of data and other online threats.

We have also chosen to tailor confidentiality clauses to each customer. The service package we offer is extremely diverse and so are the questions and needs of individual customers. In this way, all of the different aspects of GDPR regulation are discussed as standard and brought under contract, representing an advantage for both parties.

Partnerships

Collaboration is the future and forms a key part of our new business model. It has always been part of our company philosophy, but has been strengthened in recent years and will continue to become increasingly important.

We work as much as possible with local partners. In addition, we have also entered into sustainable partnerships with foreign suppliers. As a sector, it is a fact that we are dependent on supply and demand, but that of course does not mean that we do business with just anyone.

Both participating in the exchange of experience and being an active member of employers’ organizations ensures our knowledge and expertise continues to grow, and also leads to the establishment of collaborative relationships and sustainable partnerships.

We will be pleased to help you with the perfect sustainable business gift!

Each organisation requires a different approach. That is why we keep a close eye on specifics such as budget, delivery time, target- group and organisations values in the colors of your branding.
