“…The massive implementation of social supermarkets in different countries provides researchers with excellent opportunities to conduct cross-country empirical research regarding the enablers/barriers for implementing social supermarkets, performance measurement of social supermarkets, and network analysis of social supermarkets. Second, extant studies have stressed that different partnerships among profit organizations, non-profit organizations, public institutions, and governments are critical for the success of the sustainable development of social supermarkets (Brehmer et al, 2018;Risso, 2012). However, limited research has conducted empirical research on how a social supermarket builds partnerships with other institutions (e.g.…”

Food waste (FW) has been increasingly recognized as a severe environmental, social, and economic problem. Therefore, it should be tackled innovatively by analyzing and synthesizing existing solutions. This study aims to achieve a comprehensive understanding of different social innovation measures adopted for reducing FW using a systematic literature review. After locating, collecting, evaluating, and analyzing 50 publications from four databases, we conclude that social innovation activities such as digital food-sharing platforms, social supermarkets, solidarity stores, and food rescue hubs are widely deployed in different FW reduction processes. Based on the findings, we synthesized several research gaps and proposed corresponding future research directions related to research methodology, country, food redistribution, food rescue, food donation, and food sharing. These directions include conducting research to develop suitable key performance indicators to evaluate the performance of digital food-sharing platforms, linking with specific theory to conduct empirical research on partnership analysis regarding social supermarkets, and investigating the structure of multiplex relations among different participants in the food rescue activities using social network analysis. We suggest that more keywords should be scrutinized and included when searching publications in future research as keyword selection is subjective.

“…Moreover, the contemporary contextual market conditions-which see globalisation, financial and environmental crises, and information and communication technologies (ICTs) transforming stakeholders' expectations, competition, and companies' innovative approaches to the market at a rapid pace (Brondoni, 2003(Brondoni, , 2014Perrini & Tencati, 2008; Tanahashi, 2010)-shape new tactics to responsibility and sustainability, making it more of a strategic decision to redefine products, services, and business models (Kuepfer & Papula, 2010). The growing concern for sustainable development pervades all global markets and industries (Risso, 2012;Salvioni & Bosetti, 2014). The 17 Sustainable Development Goals by the United Nations (2015) are the expression of a global common agenda aiming at reducing poverty, protecting the planet, and ensuring prosperity for all.…”

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has been traditionally interpreted as the sum of practices, policies, and strategies linked with social and environmental benefits that corporations implement to serve multiple stakeholders' interests simultaneously. The evolution of meanings and implications of traditional and contemporary interpretations of CSR, focuses on integrated CSR as a breakthrough approach to business, society, and environment. Several theories and trends that integrated CSR is rooted in are: stakeholder theory, ethics, value creation, and the increasing global call for sustainable growth and development, under both financial and ethical perspectives. Selected case studies will serve as empirical evidence of processes, practices, and strategic tools that can allow the integration of CSR into the company core business and will open avenues for further discussions and practical innovative developments in CSR strategy to both academics and practitioners.

“…The consciousness of interdependency among economic, social, and environmental purposes has determined an extended conception of firms' charge (Salvioni & Bosetti, 2014), leading to the new idea of the global responsibility of enterprises (Risso, 2012). According to Asif et al (2011), the dotted picture of contemporary reality is at its foundation a matter of stakeholder relationships.…”

“…The "composite, organized and cohesive form" (García-Sánchez, Noguera-Gámez, 2017) of an integrated report is surely strategic because it provides additional high-value information influencing shareholders when they have to choose where to invest. This approach is a new paradigm that takes into account tangible and intangible elements (Brondoni, 2010, Risso, 2012. The assumption of environmental and social responsibility can create the basis for a firm's success.…”

The recent (2016) implementation in the Italian judicial system of the European Directive (2014/95/EU) about the disclosure of non-financial and diversity information by large companies and groups is crucial for understanding the need to manage in a fair approach the transition to a global and sustainable economy oriented to social and environmental principles. The Directive calls for a more concrete proof of social, environmental and ethical concerns that can be guaranteed by integrated tools. Integrated reporting generates impacts at governance level and new set of transparent and intelligible information shared with stakeholders favor their engagement and allow understanding of the social role that the company was always asked to play but not always has properly communicated. Implementing integrated reporting, a company might enhance its performances, increase market rating, build more effective bank-firm relationships, and generate growing value, both in perception and financial.
