Sustainability

We have been committed to fair trade and environmentally friendly agriculture for over 45 years. As a matter of conviction, we source our agricultural raw materials directly from the producers wherever possible. Over 90% of our raw materials come from controlled organic agriculture and a significant share is also fair trade certified.

Thanks to this stance, PRONATEC is making a major contribution to sustainable development every day. Nevertheless, we are not resting on our laurels and are committed to further improving the sustainability of our work on several levels.

We have set ourselves the following sustainability goals:

Transportation, processing and storage

We are constantly working on minimising transport links and energy consumption for processing, storage and packaging. We prefer services from partners who use sustainable processes.

Headquarters and production plant

We have designed the headquarters, cocoa processing plant and our processes in an environmentally friendly way and the employees benefit from fair and modern employment conditions.
