They understand that the increase in food manufacturing is necessary to meet growing demand, but they also strive to balance this need with sustainable practices, aware that food is a basic human need. Their approach is based on three major strategies, including the pursuit of "carbon neutral" certifications and the implementation of measures to reduce food waste and increase energy efficiency.

In addition, they are carrying out projects to reduce the carbon footprint of animal protein production, collaborating with scientific partners to mitigate methane emissions. This commitment has resulted in significant reductions in CO2 emissions in the region over the last decade.
