Sustainability at the heart

Our sustainability strategy centres on three pillars: Healthy Earth, Proud Farmers and Happy People. These pillars guide innovation and sustainability in our chain. 

Proud farmers 

Our future-proof farming philosophy is characterized by a result-oriented approach that protects and improves soil health, biodiversity, climate, and water, while improving the economic viability and resilience of farming operations. For example, our growers focus on reducing their use of fertilizers and crop protection products by opting for natural and smarter alternatives. We support our farmers throughout this transition to sustainable agriculture, thanks to our membership in the agricultural cooperative Royal Cosun.

Healthy earth 

At Aviko Rixona, we adopt a safe and responsible approach to embedding sustainability in all our activities. We will replace fossil energy sources with sustainable alternatives, such as bioenergy and electrification. We use 100% of the potato and reduce our water consumption through water recycling. Additionally, we are constantly searching for more sustainable packaging methods to minimize waste in the supply chain.  

Happy people 

We also actively involve our employees and customers in our sustainability journey. We invest in our employees’ personal growth and professional skills to maximize their talent. And together with our customers, we develop joint initiatives to enhance sustainability in processes on both sides. With a century of experience and expertise, we are well-equipped to meet the growing demand for plant-based food applications, the food of the future. Together with all our partners, we come full circle.
