A message from our CEO

At SMG, we believe in the power of digital platforms to make a difference.

Every day, millions of people use our marketplaces to make important decisions, whether it’s finding a home, selling something second-hand, buying a car, or choosing financial services. These choices matter. And we want to help make them more sustainable.

Sustainability is not a goal next to our business. It’s part of how we work.

It’s anchored in one of our core values: Act Responsibly. This means thinking long-term, taking ownership, and doing the right thing for our users, our teams, and the society we operate in.

2024 marks an important step: Our first sustainability report.

Over the past year, we’ve laid the groundwork with our first carbon footprint measurement, a dedicated sustainability team, and a clear understanding of what matters most through our Double Materiality Assessment. These foundations will help us move forward with focus.

Looking ahead, our ambition is clear:

We want to unlock the potential of our platforms to enable better, more sustainable choices at scale. At the same time, we continue to strengthen our own operations to stay resilient, reduce risks and create long-term value.

We know this is a journey. It will take time, collaboration and pragmatism.

But we are ready to play our part. And we believe we can make a meaningful contribution, powered by innovation and by the strength of our people.
