Sustainability at MeDirect
As the world confronts challenges on many levels, MeDirect continues to make every possible effort to play a positive role in the communities in which we operate. Whether it is protecting our environment, promoting diversity and inclusion, helping those who are vulnerable, or providing financial literacy education, our aim is to promote sustainability within our operations and in society. This page serves to highlight our ESG strategy and provide information on our latest sustainability initiatives.
