Lobbying Governance

DyDo Group Holdings discloses a basic internal mechanism to vet climate-related external engagements, stating that when its domestic beverage business “declares support or cooperation with local governments’ SDG or carbon-neutral initiatives, the content of the initiative and key KPIs are shared with the sustainability promotion officer, and only those confirmed to be consistent with our activity policies and priority targets are approved internally.” This shows a defined approval and alignment process and names the “sustainability promotion officer” as the responsible gatekeeper, indicating individual oversight. However, the disclosure is confined to a single business unit and does not describe how direct corporate lobbying more broadly, or indirect lobbying via trade associations, is monitored or corrected, nor does it mention board-level supervision, periodic reviews, or a publicly available lobbying-alignment report. The company also notes that it currently has “No” public commitment to align engagement activities with the Paris Agreement, merely planning to develop one in the next two years. Overall, the evidence indicates a limited but explicit governance process and identified oversight role, yet lacks breadth, transparency, and detailed monitoring covering all lobbying channels.
