CVS Health

CVS is a United States-based healthcare company with headquarters in Woonsocket, Rhode Island. The company's business involves retail pharmacy, pharmacy benefit management, health insurance, health care, care delivery, and distribution networks. The company is led by the President and CEO David Joyner. Because the company operates pharmacies and clinics, distribution hubs, and healthcare facilities, and other infrastructure, water plays a comparatively small role in its overall ESG performance.

The health care company's strongest water sustainability performance is demonstrated by the improvement in water efficiency across the company's retail footprint between 2024 and 2025. While the company's retail square footage increased by 74.10 to 80.50 million square feet, the normalized water use decreased between 0.000083 to 0.000080 megaliters per square foot between the same period. For comparison, the company's overall water use footprints have also decreased by approximately 3.9%, from 1,716 megaliters in 2024 to 1,649 megaliters in 2025. The percentage of the company's water use footprint from high and extremely high water-stress regions has also decreased from 17% to 16%. Notably, all figures are independently audited, thus ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the figures.
