For us at CHORIATIKI ZYMI, corporate social responsibility lies at the very core of everything we do. It shapes the way we operate and how we position ourselves toward our people, our communities, and our planet.
We are firmly committed to always being aware of our environmental and social footprint — taking all necessary measures to immediately minimize any potential negative impacts while simultaneously amplifying the positive ones.
That is why we have embraced a culture of responsibility and ethics, not only within our company but also across our entire value chain and partnerships. With this mindset, we consistently place our environmental impact at the center of our decisions and work tirelessly to operate responsibly and sustainably.
One of our primary goals is to reduce waste throughout every stage of our operations. With this in mind, we have adopted the principles of the circular economy, maximizing the use of every resource we consume. This effort begins with the quality of our raw materials — 100% of which derive from renewable sources, specifically biomass. Additionally, most of our packaging materials also come from renewable resources, while in the waste management process we treat waste as an alternative new resource, redirecting it for the production of animal feed and biogas.
• 99.69% of all materials we use are recyclable.
• In 2024, our waste management efforts resulted in a 97.95% reduction in disposal rates.
• That same year, we withdrew 21,254 megalitres of water from the municipal water supply network.
• In our ongoing effort to reduce our environmental footprint, we use low-emission vehicles for the transportation of our products.
For all of us at CHORIATIKI ZYMI, our responsibility toward the planet is not just a commitment — it is a comprehensive sustainability policy. Because we know that only in this way will we hand over to the next generations — to our children — the environment they deserve!
