Supply and animal welfare

We steadfastly believe in a shared framework of excellence that necessitates our suppliers to align with our vision, mission and values.

We have implemented demanding supplier certification and evaluation systems for both raw material and packaging suppliers. This includes comprehensive industrial testing to evaluate the quality of their products, and we mandate successful on-site audits before they can supply us.

Moreover, to ensure ethical conduct, integrity, and responsible practices, our suppliers are required to register on the SEDEX platform. Furthermore, adherence to our Code of Conduct by our suppliers is an essential requirement.

All our production and business activities are governed by law, thereby ensuring that we comply with the very highest standards.

 Cerealto remains committed to ensuring that 100% of the eggs used across its operations come from cage-free systems.

Following the significant progress made in recent years, the company will complete this transition during 2026, meaning that, from 2027 onwards, all eggs used by Cerealto will be sourced from cage-free systems. This milestone further reinforces the company's commitment to responsible sourcing and the continuous improvement of its supply chain.

This commitment is underpinned by the substantial progress achieved in recent years. Today, egg-derived ingredients account for less than 0.17% of the total raw materials used by the company, while purchases of eggs from caged hens have been reduced by more than 95% compared with 2020.

We will continue to work to gradually reduce the sourcing of egg products across our global operations. We have already met and exceeded our commitment to reduce by 10% in 2023, reaching 12%. We have also met our commitment to reduce by 50% in 2024 and will continue to work towards a 100% reduction by the end of 2025 compared to 2020.
