Sustainability as a Service
Suppliers and distributors have a symbiotic relationship – we need each other to be successful. Our approach to Sustainability can be no different.
Carbon emissions reduction, championing social causes, and upholding responsible business practices are rightly all standard components of any company's ESG strategy. HPG will continue to benchmark today’s impact, set ambitious goals for the future, and report progress transparently every year.
But HPG’s core purpose is to serve distributors. It is only through this focus on our partnership that HPG has been able to supply millions of promotional products worldwide. HPG’s fundamental approach to ESG is to tap into that same collective potential. By doing so, we can have the greatest impact.
Our Priorities
Sustainability is a vast topic so we have looked to experts both inside and outside of the industry to help guide and assess our priorities. We have decided to set them under three key categories: Environmental, Social, and Governance.
Our 2023 Sustainability Report defines measurable E.S.G. goals for 2024 and beyond. We will be transparent about when we are successful and when we fall short. These goals will expand in scope and ambition every year as we learn and evolve.

– Jing Rong, VP of Supply Chain & Sustainability, HPG
Aligned with Global Goals
HPG is part of the UN Global Compact, the worlds largest corporate sustainability initiative (View our listing here).
The United Nations has laid out a comprehensive framework of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), serving as a roadmap towards a more sustainable and equitable future for all. These goals address interconnected global challenges, urging action to combat poverty, improve healthcare and education, reduce inequality, promote economic growth, tackle climate change, and preserve our vital ecosystems, including oceans and forests.
At HPG, we recognize the importance of aligning our sustainability efforts with these global objectives. From the UN's SDGs, we've pinpointed five areas where our actions can have a meaningful impact. Our efforts align with these specific areas, demonstrating our commitment to driving positive change in line with the broader global agenda.
