SUSTAINABILITY AT OUR CORE
Grover & Company is driven by ‘sustainability’ at its core. We believe investing and partnering in plant-based businesses are more sustainable because they use less natural resources and are less taxing on the environment. Plant-based companies could substantially increase the global food supply without expanding croplands and disrupting rainforests, yet significantly reduce carbon emissions and waste by-products that end up in our oceans, rivers and waterways. Sustainability for us is not limited to plant-based business, environmentally friendly manufacturing, reducing the carbon footprint, or the overarching need to save the planet, It is much about viewing the ventures we invest and partner with from a ‘sustainable viewpoint’. Grover & Company believes in the strong fundamentals of ‘value creation’ through ‘sustainable growth’ and an ‘economically viable’ business model that generates ‘profit’ for its shareholders.

Grover & Company has learned a great deal from the ‘Global Financial Crisis 2008 and the recent ‘COVID-19 Pandemic 2020’ that have shaken financial markets and the world order through massive wealth wipe-outs. We believe more than ever ‘Sustainability-Based Business Mindset’ has become a vital ingredient in preserving shareholders value and wealth. Grover & Company’s purpose is to work tirelessly with entrepreneurs focusing on a ‘Back-to-the-Basics Approach’ that encompasses the following; (A) Strong Purpose Driving the Venture, (B) Consistent Customer Value Creation, (C) Innovation & Technology Adaptation in a Centre Stage Position, (D) A Forward-Thinking & Progressive Organisation Culture, (E) A Stakeholder Approach to Talent Management & Retention, (F) Understanding that Growth has to be Sustainable, and (G) Profit Generation for Shareholders.
