For over 30 years, it has been our mission to bring health and natural joie de vivre to the world with our sun-sweet fruits and tasty vegetables. “Taste in harmony with people and nature” is our motto and the basis for our actions worldwide.
We act both entrepreneurially and sustainably. We attach particular importance to three aspects: environmental, social and responsible corporate governance (ESG = environmental, social, governance).
For us, it goes without saying that we comply with all political and legal requirements. In this way, we fulfil our duty of care with regard to human rights, social issues and the environment throughout the entire supply chain. We document our efforts in the area of sustainability and set ourselves goals to work even more sustainably (Sustainable Development Goals = SDGs).
We pay strict attention to compliance with human rights, international conventions and environmental protection. We implement standards such as SA8000, SIZA and SMETA at our sites worldwide.
As a global company and the largest supplier of fruit and vegetables in Germany, Austria and the Netherlands, we bear a great deal of social and environmental responsibility.
Since 2018, we have been taking the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into account throughout our entire supply chain. After all, the people who also work for us indirectly should be able to live well.
We are convinced that companies with the right ethical goals can have a positive impact on society and the environment.
We have therefore set ourselves ten sustainability goals in order to treat our customers, employees and partners with respect and to show our commitment to the environment and society. These goals are divided into the categories of environmental, social and responsible corporate governance.
