Sustainability
Smart Fit Group drives its business model through a comprehensive wellness ecosystem, supported by a strategy focused on operational efficiency, sustainable expansion and revenue diversification.
Since 2021, when we joined B3’s Novo Mercado segment, the highest level of corporate governance in the Brazilian capital markets, we have been structuring our Sustainability Agenda. In 2023, we consolidated this commitment with the launch of our Sustainability Report, prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards, reporting our environmental, social and governance practices aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
In 2024, we further consolidated our sustainability journey by publishing our first Sustainability Report assured by an external auditor, reinforcing the transparency and reliability of the information reported. In addition to reporting under the GRI Standards, we also adopted the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) metrics, increasing the technical rigor of the information provided to our stakeholders. Our performance was recognized by Extel, formerly Institutional Investor, which ranked our sustainability practices as the Best ESG Program in the Retailing sector in Latin America, an achievement that reinforces our commitment to this agenda and encourages us to continuously raise our standards of governance and social impact.
In the 2025 cycle, we advanced our climate management with the development and disclosure of our first Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Inventory for the Brazil operation, in accordance with the GHG Protocol. In parallel, we adopted the double materiality methodology, which connects our external social and environmental impacts to their financial implications for the Group. This strategic approach supported the reorganization of our pillars of action, improving decision-making and long-term value creation. Reflecting the maturity of our ESG agenda, we were once again recognized by Extel as the Best ESG Program in the Retailing sector in Latin America and were included in IDIVERSA B3, an index that highlights leading companies in diversity listed on the Brazilian stock exchange. In addition, we became a constituent of FTSE4Good, a global index that recognizes companies with robust governance and social and environmental responsibility standards.
As we continue to expand geographically, we are enhancing the mechanisms to integrate the collection of sustainability indicators across all our business units and operating segments, both in Brazil and abroad. Our objective is to strengthen the integration of operational data management under the same analytical rigor, standardizing a unified database that reflects our performance on an international scale. In this way, we reaffirm our commitment to aligning our growth with transparency, providing consistent indicators that enable the market to assess the resilience and sustainability of our long-term expansion strategy.
