The BRC Food (British Retail Consortium) and IFS Broker (International Featured Standards) are internationally recognized standards that confirm to companies in the food sector that the quality, safety and hygiene conditions of their products and services are assured. The BRC Food Standard specifies requirements for food safety and quality assurance in production, while the IFS Broker Standard focuses on the control of supply chains and compliance with safety standards.

Both certificates demonstrate our commitment to safety and quality standards throughout the supply chain.

Our environmental management system has been certified in accordance with ISO 14001:2015 since October 2024. This helps us to identify, monitor and minimize our environmental impact as far as possible. We set environmental targets and decide on measures, which are then evaluated and adjusted if necessary. This supports us on our path to improved environmental performance.

Our energy management system is also certified in accordance with ISO 50001:2018. The system enables us to monitor our company’s energy consumption and identify optimization potential. This includes reducing our consumption by increasing efficiency and expanding our PV systems in order to increase the proportion of renewable energy.

For our snacks, we only use UTZ certified cocoa. UTZ is a sustainability program for coffee, tea and cocoa from producer to trade. Through our licensing, we support the sustainable cultivation and trade of cocoa, enabling farmers to increase productivity, product quality and efficiency while respecting people and the environment.
