What we found
Carrefour was one of two reporters to offer users the a direct choice between formats; their PDF and image-based reporting are accessible with the same number of steps, with neither format more prominent than the other. Functionality in the image based report includes a “Recommend” button, a bookmarking option (which is helpful for navigating back and forth from the GRI Content Index) as well the option to download individual pages as PDFs. The image based report can be browsed from front to back online, or users can jump to a particular section or page number.
The Flash book brings together two separate publications that comprise Carrefour’s Sustainability Reporting; these reports are downloaded separately when accessed as PDFs.
Carrefour published their 2008 Sustainability Report at the end of April 2009.
