Initiatives regarding society
We continue to invest in embedding and sourcing our agri-food products in Belgium. This allows us to contribute to a more sustainable Belgian agriculture.
We make a big deal out of sustainable freight transport. By 2035, all of our freight transport will be zero emission. Here you can discover how.
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.
All our drivers undertake to drive courteously and safely. Our lorries are equipped with blind-spot cameras, and through sessions at school we alert children to the dangers of the road.
Less waste, more recycling? Every year, we reduce our waste streams in proportion to our turnover. And at the same time, we recycle the residual streams as much as possible.
Colruyt Group's aim is the most sustainable soy cultivation in Belgium and abroad. We are a member of the Round Table on Responsible Soy and stimulate local soy cultivation.
