Tristar Group CEO Eugene Mayne personally receives the award in Mumbai, India
Dubai-headquartered liquid logistics leader Tristar was named winner of the ‘Golden Peacock Global Award for Corporate Social Responsibility’ by the Institute of Directors (IoD), of the New Delhi, India-based based Golden Peacock Awards Secretariat.
Tristar Group CEO Eugene Mayne received the prestigious award from Prakash Mehta, State Cabinet Minister for Housing Department, Maharashtra and officers of the IoD at a recent ceremony in Mumbai, India.
Tristar’s CSR thrust is to give back to communities where it operates. In Africa, one major project is aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Number 4 on ‘Quality Education’. The company has been supporting and funding the development of local schools and facilities in South Sudan and Kenya.
The Golden Peacock Awards are now recognised as the hallmark of corporate excellence worldwide, because of their independence, integrity, transparency. Furthermore, thorough evaluation of the application provides opportunity for self-assessment and helps companies accelerate their performance and assess competition.
The Tristar Group has a CSR Steering Committee which is led by Mayne and consists of the Group Chief Administrative Officer and other department heads, managers and advisers with clearly defined responsibilities to fulfill and ensure successful completion of CSR activities across the global network in the Middle East, Africa, Asia, the Pacific and Central America.
