Since September 2024, we have partnered with IONAKA Farms to grow fresh fruit and vegetables. This production benefits all individuals and families supported by the Secours Populaire charity.
The farming methods employed are highly efficient in both water and land use. No plant protection products are used. Nutrients are delivered through a closed system, never exposed to air or rain, which prevents contamination from urban pollution. Greenhouses can also be heated using recovered waste heat from our facilities.
The produce is grown locally and harvested at peak ripeness from March to November, in line with natural seasonal cycles, ensuring outstanding freshness and flavour.
• We engage our value chain through a responsible procurement approach, promoting sustainable practices across our partners.
• We uphold high standards of integrity and are committed to ensuring compliance, with a goal to have no incidents of non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations across our operations.
• Our governance framework is supported by a Code of Conduct, anti-corruption measures, and whistleblowing mechanisms to ensure accountability and ethical behavior across the organization.
• We carry out voluntary sustainability reporting based on MidCap and post-Omnibus CSRD frameworks, supporting transparency and continuous improvement of our ESG performance.
• A monthly CSR steering committee, involving executive management, oversees ESG priorities, monitors progress, and supports continuous improvement across our ESG initiatives.
