UZBAT Receives ESG Awards 2026 for Contribution to Local Community Development

As part of the ESG Awards 2026, held during the Tashkent International Investment Forum, British American Tobacco Uzbekistan was awarded in the «Community Impact & Livelihood Development» category for the Drinking Water project, aimed at improving public access to quality drinking water.

The ESG Awards recognize the most significant initiatives in sustainable development, social responsibility, and corporate governance in Uzbekistan. This year, the awards were presented to leading companies implementing projects that contribute to the long-term development of the country and improve the quality of life of the population.

The national recognition of the Drinking Water project confirmed UZBAT’s commitment to the principles of sustainable development and responsible business practices. The company consistently implements initiatives aimed at supporting local communities, developing social infrastructure, and creating positive change in the places where people live and work.

For UZBAT, sustainable development is an integral part of its corporate strategy. Investments in projects related to public well-being and access to essential resources help create long-term value for society and contribute to achieving national sustainable development goals.

Receiving the ESG Awards 2026 was an important achievement for the company and another confirmation that joint efforts by business, government, and society can deliver tangible results and improve people’s lives across the country.
