Our goal is to deliver prosperity for all our stakeholders – including our investors, colleagues, retail partners and the communities we serve.
This, of course, should never come at the cost of conducting ourselves in a manner that isn’t environmentally and socially responsible, accountable and ethical in every aspect of our business. We wouldn’t have it any other way, because it’s been how we’ve done it since day one.
We are focused on practical, measurable action. In 2025, we reduced energy consumption in Plaza-operated areas by 21% and expanded efficient LED lighting to 88% of applicable properties—advancing lower emissions, safer sites and long-term cost savings. Through targeted upgrades, enhanced data insights and responsible management, we continue to build a more efficient and resilient portfolio. Water intensity in Plaza-operated areas declined by 17%, reflecting our commitment to continuous improvement.
Our people and communities are central to everything we do. In 2025, our DEI survey achieved an 88% participation rate, with 92% of employees reporting they feel treated equitably – a reflection of our inclusive and supportive culture. We invest in our people through development opportunities, flexible work and wellness initiatives, while empowering our teams to make a meaningful impact in the communities we serve through volunteering, partnerships and direct support for local organizations.
Strong governance drives sustainable performance. Backed by a robust governance framework, clear ethical standards and active Board engagement, we remain committed to transparency, accountability and responsible growth.
