Sustainability
We have been committed to fair trade and environmentally friendly agriculture for over 45 years. As a matter of conviction, we source our agricultural raw materials directly from the producers wherever possible. Over 90% of our raw materials come from controlled organic agriculture and a significant share is also fair trade certified.
Thanks to this stance, PRONATEC is making a major contribution to sustainable development every day. Nevertheless, we are not resting on our laurels and are committed to further improving the sustainability of our work on several levels.
We have set ourselves the following sustainability goals
Our sphere of influence is centred on the following five UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):






Purchase of raw materials
We promote the environmentally friendly cultivation of food and are eager to improve livelihoods for smallholders’ families and processing staff in the producer countries.
Transportation, processing and storage
We are constantly working on minimising transport links and energy consumption for processing, storage and packaging. We prefer services from partners who use sustainable processes.


Headquarters and production plant
We have designed the headquarters, cocoa processing plant and our processes in an environmentally friendly way and the employees benefit from fair and modern employment conditions.
Public relations and commitment
PRONATEC is actively committed to all aspects of sustainable food supply.

Reporting a grievance
Identifying possible human-rights, environmental and governance risks along our supply chain is a key aspect of our due diligence approach. We strongly encourage any person or interest group who is part of our supply chain to report any wrongdoings or concerns.
We will make sure to investigate and respond to every reported complaint appropriately. Please report a grievance here.
