Today’s growing environmental and societal challenges require us to take responsibility and provide meaningful answers.
REWE Group is a sustainability leader in European food retail.
With safe, high-quality, and competitively priced food from sustainable production, we aim to meet growing consumer expectations for greater sustainability.
Today’s fruit and vegetable consumers expect not only top quality, but also environmentally responsible production practices (especially in water and energy use), preservation of genetic and agricultural diversity, and guarantees of safe working conditions and fair labor standards for farmers.
At Eurogroup, we act as a bridge between committed farmers and demanding consumers. Our integrated sourcing model allows us to oversee every link in the chain from crop planning to store delivery, including packaging, transport, quality control, picking, and traceability.
These relationships must be based on cooperation, mutual respect, dialogue, and transparency.
A key aspect is ensuring product prices are sustainable for suppliers while remaining competitive and attractive for consumers.
At Eurogroup, we provide supply forecasts based on previous years’ demand to give suppliers a realistic view of expected purchase volumes.
For our clients, product quality and supply security come first. The ongoing challenge for Eurogroup and its partners is to continuously optimize every process from production to packaging, logistics, quality control, picking, and final delivery, ensuring sustainability and competitiveness, and even improving them whenever possible.
Responsible Farming
We promote agricultural practices that respect natural resources and protect the health of soils, water, and biodiversity.
Our organic division works exclusively with certified growers and regularly audits their methods to ensure organic integrity.
Sustainable Packaging
We design packaging solutions that minimize material usage and promote recyclability. We continuously evaluate available options to strike the best balance between product protection and reduced environmental impact.
Sustainable Logistics and Mobility
We require our logistics partners to use low-emission vehicles and optimize delivery routes to reduce our carbon footprint.
We’ve begun electrifying our fleet and have installed electric vehicle charging points at our facilities, supported by the NextGenerationEU program.
This reflects our active commitment to decarbonizing transport.
Carbon Footprint
We are implementing carbon footprint assessments for all operations with the aim of setting clear emission reduction targets throughout our supply chain.
All partners must be made aware of the importance of reducing CO₂ emissions.
At Eurogroup, we foster an inclusive, equal, and flexible work environment. We believe a strong company is also a socially responsible one. Since 2021, we have partnered with the Spanish Federation of Food Banks (FESBAL), donating fresh fruit and vegetables weekly to vulnerable families—part of our commitment to reducing food waste and improving access to healthy food.</span></p>
