Autogrill has always worked hard in the field of environmental sustainability and is one of the benchmark setters in its Industry. Respect for the environment on one hand and ongoing research into innovative and sustainable solutions on the other are the two main drivers of our sustainability strategy, Make It Happen.
Creating an increasingly supportive organization is a key value for Autogrill and one of the main goals of its strategic sustainability roadmap, Make It Happen. This is why Autogrill Group, with people at its centre, has for years been committed to fostering a culture of diversity on multiple fronts and offering concrete job opportunities to people who are classed as fragile in terms of employability.
Innovation and research to protect the planet
Reducing the use of virgin plastic and replacing single-use packaging with sustainable, recyclable or recycled materials are two of the main ways to reduce environmental impact.
Experimenting with new compostable materials for cutlery, take-away packaging, glasses and straws means constant research and development and a strong focus on the Food&Beverage industry’s guidelines, especially regarding food safety.
The Autogrill Group introduced, in early 2023, the new Supplier Code of Conduct. The document, in compliance with the general principles enshrined in the Group Code of Ethics, marks another step forward in creating a business that is more sustainable towards the environment and more respectful towards all workers involved within the value chain.
Multiculturalism and pluralism
A commitment going back years
Autogrill has always been concerned about the sustainability of its supply chain and is committed to promoting responsible sourcing practices. Accordingly, Autogrill Group believes in the basic principles of animal welfare, in line with the laws, regulations and international best practice.
Transparency and fairness in relationships with suppliers
In recent years, environmental and social issues have become increasingly relevant in consumers’ food choices. As the leading provider of foodservice for travellers, Autogrill Group is well aware of this and firmly believes in the importance of offering its customers healthy, safe, quality products capable of contributing to their wellbeing and that of the planet.
