The HOLDER Group and its brand companies
are committed
Concerned about its social responsibility, the HOLDER group is developing a CSR policy based on 4 pillars :
Corporate citizenship :Because our business is deeply connected with society, through employees and customers, we are developing three areas of action allowing us to interact positively:
Highlight: for several years, the group's employees have been helping young people to find their first job, on a voluntary basis. |
Nutrition and health :Because our job is to "feed people", we want to go beyond food safety, and offer choices that allow everyone to preserve their nutritional balance and health, through 3 commitments:
Highlight: A scientific committee, made up of 5 independent experts, meets regularly to help us understand important concerns and make the most relevant choices. |
Territories and sectors :Because our raw materials come from agricultural areas and rely on a large number of production sectors, we seek to better take into account their origin through 3 commitments
Highlight: For more than two years, all of the Group's brands have been gradually converting their egg supplies and have undertaken to completely abandon eggs and egg products from cage farming no later than 2025 for all of the Group's activities through the world. In 2020, 100% of the shell eggs and 28% of the egg products from our centralized purchases already come from free range farming. The HOLDER Group is consolidating this action by committing, by 2026, to source exclusively chicken meat from production chains that meet the criteria recommended by the "Better Chicken Commitment" consortium, for all its stores in the EU. These criteria, established by 30 international NGOs, reinforce breeding requirements in favor of the welfare of broilers: available area, slow-growing strain, natural lighting, perches, etc. Criteria which will be supplemented by access to ranges open or covered for 20% of volumes purchased in France. |
The environment:Because all production and distribution activities have a strong impact on the environment, we must do our part in limiting environmental impacts. We do this through 5 commitments:
Highlight: In our PAUL stores, more than 95% of the packaging given to our consumers is now in paper or cardboard.
