Agrico has a vision of sustainability whereby it takes into account its right to exist and the impact of its activities on the natural and social environment in which it operates.
Profit: Agrico searches for a healthy balance between social and monetary gain. We have a future focussed approach that we apply to utilise new opportunities and to safeguard the continuity of the company. Agrico is developing a plan for growers aimed at making their own operational management methods more sustainable.
Planet: We monitor the impact of our activities on the environment and our immediate surroundings. We note any aspects that could be improved, work out the details of improvements and where possible implement measures in our operational practice. At the same time we draw the attention of our suppliers to their own social responsibility.
People: Agrico has a positive effect on its social environment and enjoys a reputation as a first rate employer. Our goal is a well trained, motivated and dedicated workforce. The conditions of employment, job differentiation and labour conditions are excellent.
The details of this vision are incorporated in a sustainability strategy, which influences the entire organisation. Agrico wants to act as an exemplary role model for its surroundings by quantifying progress, benchmarking the results against changing insights and where necessary changing the course of its strategy.
