Trialogue’s Sustainable Business Tracker is the leading benchmark of sustainability practice in South African business, providing evidence-based insight into how companies are embedding sustainability into strategy and operations. The Tracker responds to a growing disconnect between sustainability’s mainstream status and its inconsistent implementation, assessing business maturity across five pillars: strategy, governance, processes, targets and metrics, and reporting.
Trialogue Sustainable Business Tracker 2026
This inaugural edition of the Trialogue Sustainable Business Tracker introduces a new annual research publication that tracks how South African companies are responding to the growing sustainability imperative. Drawing on Trialogue’s Sustainable Business Self-Assessment Tool, it assesses the embeddedness of sustainability across five pillars: strategy, governance, processes, targets and metrics, and reporting. The Tracker unpacks why the integration of sustainability into business remains inconsistent, examines the gap between board-level intent and operational implementation and offers a holistic lens for leadership teams to focus their efforts where they will have the greatest impact.
