SanLucar has been honored in Tunisia with the “Environmental Impact Award 2024”, by the Foreign Investment Promotion Agency “FIPA Tunisia”. This prestigious prize was presented to the international fruit and vegetable brand for its outstanding contribution to economic growth and sustainable development in the country.<\/p>\n

The multinational company -producer and distributor of premium quality fruit and vegetables- was given the award last Wednesday in the Tunisian city of Gammarth, as part of the 21st edition of the Tunis Investment Forum. Walid Kalboussi, SanLucar Country Manager, received the award from the President of the Tunisian Union of Industry, Trade and Crafts (UTICA), Samir Majoul. The event was attended by prominent authorities from the economic and political sphere, as well as representatives of the SanLucar team in the country.<\/p>\n

During his speech, the head of SanLucar Tunisia expressed his deepest gratitude for this honorary gesture with which FIPA Tunisia wanted to underline the contributions of SanLucar in recent years in terms of innovation and sustainable investment.<\/p>\n

According to Kalboussi, “in its constant quest for excellence, SanLucar landed in Tunisia in 2008 with its first agricultural farm, La Cinqui\u00e8me Saison, located at El Hamma in the
\nsouth of the country”. A pioneering project which -as he explained- enables the multinational to grow tomatoes in winter, taking advantage of the exceptional light conditions on the site, as well as the geothermal water heating of its greenhouses. “Today, our presence has been extended to Alia in Bizerte and Limaoua in Gab\u00e8s, for the production of strawberries and blueberries”, he added.<\/p>\n

SanLucar’s development in Tunisia has been accompanied by a genuine concern to control its impact on the environment through various measures such as digitization and the application of new technologies for more efficient use of natural resources, particularly water; also, integrated biological pest control and the use of sustainable varieties adapted to the country’s climatic conditions, among many others.<\/p>\n

SanLucar has approached its growth in Tunisia also from the perspective of positively impacting the trade balance, by enabling its Tunisian subsidiaries to benefit from both the group’s agronomic know-how and the commercial strength of the globally recognized SanLucar brand.<\/p>\n

But the company’s aim is not just to continue growing in the country while taking care of the environment. SanLucar works every day to fulfil its mission: to offer the world the best fruit and vegetables, and to do so in a way that it can be proud of, in harmony not only with nature but also with people.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>

With this in mind, the company runs a number of social projects in Tunisia, which benefit both the local communities close to its production farms as well as SanLucar employees and their families. Among its many projects, the enterprise is helping to improve the employability of young Tunisians by promoting vocational training in agriculture.<\/p>\n

The \u201cEnvironmental Impact Award\u201d joins other prizes SanLucar has already received in the country, such as the Social Progress Award, the Partnership Agricultural Investment Award and the \u201cHannon Prize\u201d for its responsible investment in Tunisia.<\/p>\n
