Environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria have become increasingly important as a barometer for all-around business success. Increasingly, companies are seeking locations that are environmentally and socially conscious, and therefore able to sustain a company’s planned long-term growth. Similarly, communities with diverse, inclusive brands are seeking to recruit like-minded companies that match their tone and tenor.

Locations that are out in front of the ESG investment model can provide a competitive edge in the site selection process, says Tracey Hyatt Bosman, Managing Director for Biggins Lacy Shapiro & Co.

“There has been a dramatic change in the way companies are talking about these issues,” said Bosman. “They are now making them the fabric of the day-to-day conversation in the site selection process. Companies are increasingly asking how location portfolios can contribute to the achievement of ESG goals, including access to clean/renewable energy and a diverse labor pool, and further foster the corporate culture the company is seeking to create and maintain.”
