You can see at a glance with the environment icon which products and services are improving your environmental impact step by step, and how we are making our activities more sustainable. This is how taking care of the environment just got one step easier.
Initiatives regarding environment
As much as possible, we put any food surpluses to good use through social organisations, sell them at reduced prices or process them into other products.
Colruyt Group developed a high-tech vertical farm in house. We grow plants such as basil with a minimal environmental impact, which we sell at Bio-Planet.
In Sea Farm Westdiep, we grow mussels 5 km off the Belgian coast. Since 2023 the first Belgian mussels are offered in our Cru stores.
Belgian chocolate? Yes, please! All Boni and Everyday chocolate has a sustainability label and we help small producers in two international chain projects.
By planting 12 million trees, Colruyt Group wants to actively capture our remaining emission greenhouse gases.
Through certifications and chain projects, we provide small coffee and tea farmers in producing countries with a fair income and encourage sustainable cultivation methods.
