Mr. Yosayut Sahawatcharin, Senior Vice President of People & Culture and Corporate Affairs, Suntory PepsiCo Beverage (Thailand) Co., Ltd., stated that “At Suntory PepsiCo Thailand, we place great importance on caring for our employees at every level to foster happiness, balance, and overall well-being in the workplace, while supporting their holistic growth. Guided by our ‘People-First’ approach, we believe that our employees are the heart of our success. When they truly feel a sense of belonging, they come not only to work — but also to build success and grow together with the organization. We are committed to creating a workplace that promotes physical, mental, and social well-being through a wide range of policies and programs, such as the Flexi Arrangements Policy, which allow employees to manage their work schedules to suit their lifestyles; the Sunny Stars Program, which encourages colleagues to recognize and appreciate one another; and financial literacy initiatives that help employees plan for lifelong financial wellness. We also foster 'Psychological Safety in the Workplace’, empowering employees to express their opinions freely and be their authentic selves. Beyond employee well-being, we continuously drive meaningful social and environmental initiatives. One prominent example is the ‘One Suntory Mizuiku Program,’ which aims to instill environmental awareness and water conservation knowledge among youth. Over the past two years, the program has reached more than 19,700 students and teachers across 60 schools in Chonburi and Rayong provinces. These efforts reflect our corporate value of ‘Growing for Good,’ which emphasizes sustainable business growth while caring for our people, society, and the environment. Receiving the Excellence in Corporate Wellness Award at the HR Excellence Awards 2025 reaffirms our human resources management, which not only builds a strong organization but also creates a workplace where everyone can grow, and work with happiness and well-being.”

Mrs. Mathuvalee Stithyudhakarn, Vice President, Corporate Affairs – Thailand and Indochina, Suntory Beverage & Food (Thailand) Co., Ltd., added “At Suntory Beverage & Food Thailand, people are at the heart of everything we do. Guided by the ‘Empowered by People’ approach, we believe that every employee’s voice and action hold value and play a vital role in shaping the company’s growth.   We prioritize promoting both physical and mental well-being, empowering employees to drive the organization’s success while creating meaningful change in society. This approach aligns with Suntory’s core value ‘Giving Back to Society,’ which encourages employees to grow together with the organization while contributing to community development. Through initiatives such as ‘One Suntory Helping Hands’ program, now in its third year, employees collectively raise funds to support underprivileged schools and communities, improving the quality of life for children in need. These efforts not only bring employees a deep sense of pride but also strengthen unity and collaboration across the organization, empowering us to create sustainable value for society. The recognition from the HR Excellence Awards 2025 stands as a powerful testament to our shared success, driven by the strength of our people, who are the true foundation of both business growth and social impact.”
