4
Oil produced by growers who respect environmental best practices
5
Oil that is produced in a manner that upholds the rights of local communities
6
Oil produced in a manner that upholds human rights and workers’ rights
7
Oil from a supply chain that includes and support smallholders
Acting on the wheat sector and promote soil-friendly farming methods
In France, we have joined the “Pour une agriculture du vivant” movement (For agriculture of the living). This cooperation between pioneer farmers and leaders in the agricultural and food sectors engaged in the agro-ecological transition finds a natural echo in our CSR commitments and our corporate philosophy. Concretely, for Cérélia, this means…
Sourcing French
flour locally
working with short channels
in order to reduce transport and intermediaries.
Working
together
to support our farming partners towards agro-ecology and improve their soil regeneration index.
Promoting agro-ecological practices
in order to act in favour of soil regeneration, the diversity of cultivated species and ecosystems.
Active research in circular packaging
The challenge concerning the packaging of the future is to innovate to create sustainable packaging taking its end-of-life into account.
Innovation with (RE)SET
In July 2019, we embarked on a (RE)SET open innovation programme on the theme of “Plastic-free Packaging”.
As a result, three flexible plastic-free packaging pilots are currently in development. Our ambition is to offer products in plastic-free packaging by 2025.
Responsible paper packaging
100% of our paper packaging come from responsibly managed forests.
