The global food sector faces extraordinary risks from the twin challenges of water scarcity
and water pollution. Growing competition for water, combined with weak regulations, failing

and water pollution. Growing competition for water, combined with weak regulations, failing
infrastructure, pollution and climate change impacts threaten the sector’s water security and
contribute to a water availability emergency that was recently ranked the world’s “top global risk”
by the World Economic Forum.
This report examines how water risks affect the profitability and competitive positioning of 37
major food sector companies in four industries: packaged food, beverage, meat and agricultural
products. It evaluates and ranks these companies—the majority of which are U.S. domiciled and
publicly-traded—on how well they are positioned to anticipate and mitigate these risks, as well as
contribute to improved water resource management.
The report provides recommendations for how analysts and investors can effectively evaluate
food sector companies on their water risk exposure and management practices. It also provides
recommendations for how food companies can improve water efficiency and water quality across
their operations and supply chains to reduce risks and protect water resources.Other authorsSee publication
