Both awards demonstrate that reducing the carbon footprint of the company’s operations has become a key element in its overall strategy and is embodied in the philosophy of ‘mindful agriculture’.
Grupo Agroponiente has ended its journey at the 16th Fruit Attraction in Madrid with an accumulation of good news. In addition to the sensational balance of its presence at the Fair, with a high intensity of business operations and commercial contacts, the company has received double recognition in terms of sustainability, which is one of the key elements of the company’s current corporate philosophy.
Thus, one of the most important logistics operators with which the company works, Frío Guerrero, has awarded the Agroponiente Group a certificate. This certificate attests to the scale of the projects aimed at offsetting the carbon footprint and carried out by Frío Guerrero itself, thanks to the work it carries out together with Agroponiente.
For its part, another supplier of the Agroponiente Group, in this case the reusable packaging company EPS, has also taken advantage of Fruit Attraction to present this company with one of its certificates attesting to the reduction in its carbon footprint achieved thanks to the use of this type of packaging.
This is not the first time that the Agroponiente Group has received recognition of this kind, as for some years now, its firm and decisive commitment to actions and strategies aimed at reducing the carbon footprint has been applied transversally throughout the company, also including purchasing actions and relations with suppliers, as these examples show, with Frío Guerrero in the logistics and transport area and EPS in the packaging area.
These are simply two examples of this strategy aimed at contributing to an improvement in the environment and the development of a sustainable activity that is committed to the environment, embodied in the slogan ‘mindful agriculture’, which the Agroponiente Group has applied firmly and rigorously, to achieve important tangible results in different areas.
In this way, the company’s CEO, Imanol Almudí, emphasised that ‘for us, environmental and sustainability commitment is neither anecdotal nor something dispensable; it forms part of our corporate philosophy, it is in the company’s DNA and is a fundamental pillar in the way the company works, both in general and in all its departments in particular. And as can be seen, it also includes relations with all the actors in our environment, from farmers to customers, including, of course, our suppliers, such as these two, who are examples of working together for a healthier and more sustainable environment’.
