Image description Our environmental responsibility:
We choose products that are manufactured with an attitude of respect for people and the planet. We support the most environmentally friendly farming practices and we are attentive to the preservation of resources and biodiversity. When transporting products, we are committed to reducing atmospheric emissions, optimising the logistics chain, reducing noise pollution and developing alternatives to road transport. We are closely involved with local communities and their social and economic development, and are improving the way stores blend into their surroundings. We are also working to improve the accessibility of our stores by enhancing access and parking areas. Our store designs are based on environmentally-friendly architecture, and we take care to reduce our consumption of resources and energy, sort and reduce waste as well as to reduce the use of disposable bags and the amount of paper we consume. With regard to controlling pollution, we also manage our service stations carefully and monitor our refrigerant consumption.
