Healthier living is something we do together
We consider it our social role as a retailer to contribute to the (preventive) health of our customers and employees. Therefore, we want to help strengthen support with regard to health and make it easier to make healthier choices. Physically, mentally as well as socially.
What exactly we understand under health is explained in our definitions.
How does Colruyt Group contribute to a balanced and healthy life?
1 Healthier product range
We offer our customers a balanced range of products, tailored as far as possible to individual needs and requirements. Together with our suppliers and our own production departments, we are constantly improving the nutritional composition and value of our private label products, across all productcategories.
Through the online pharmacy Newpharma and in our Colruyt stores we also make (OTC) pharmaceutical products more easily available. in such categories as baby and mama, vitamins and nutritional supplements, in addition to specialised products for e.g. first aid, home care and animals. Because these too can contribute to a healthy lifestyle.
2 Guidance for a healthier lifestyle
By informing, inspiring and guiding, we are helping our customers and employees adopt a healthier lifestyle. We are doing this in a user-friendly and transparent manner based on scientific research, providing them with the tools to make their own conscious choices. Both online and through flyers and cookery books, we offer recipes with a specific focus on a balanced diet.
In addition to nutrition, also exercise, sleep, mental well-being and relationships with others and with nature have an important impact on our health.
