East African Breweries PLC discloses extensive ESG oversight, noting that “Our Chief Executive, Jane Karuku, is ultimately accountable for overall performance against ESG goals” and that “the Board ensures that the business has in place ESG frameworks, and sustainability matters are incorporated into purpose, governance, strategy, decision-making, risk management, and accountability reporting.” However, we found no evidence of any governance process specific to lobbying activities or to the alignment of lobbying with climate or other policy goals. There is no reference to monitoring or reviewing direct or indirect lobbying, no policy on lobbying alignment, and no individual or committee charged with overseeing lobbying efforts.

East African Breweries PLC provides only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. The company references collaboration with governmental bodies such as the “Ministry of Water and Environment in Uganda” and Kenya’s “Ministry of Environment, Climate Change and Forestry,” indicating that these ministries are the targets of some engagement, but it does not explain how it seeks to influence them—no letters, consultations, or other lobbying mechanisms are described. Likewise, while EABL mentions participation in environmental initiatives such as the “National Billion Tree Planting Campaign” and development of the Nairobi Securities Exchange ESG Disclosures Guidance Manual, it never identifies any specific climate law, regulation, or bill it has tried to shape. The objectives of its engagement are presented only in broad, aspirational terms—e.g., “accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy” and achieving “net-zero carbon in direct operations”—without spelling out the concrete policy changes it wants governments to adopt. As a result, the disclosures show some acknowledgement of governmental interaction and high-level climate ambition but fall short of clearly naming the policies involved, the methods used, or the precise outcomes sought.
