SERVING THE EARTH,
OUR PURPOSE

For Avril, "Serving the Earth" means meeting two major challenges: the climate emergency and population growth. This purpose is in line with the Group's mission and confirms its power to take action through six concrete commitments, for the agricultural, food and environmental transitions.

Avril's purpose

Taking action for agriculture that respects the planet

Because we believe in a form of agriculture that feeds people while respecting the planet, we are committed to being the link with producers that allows for dialogue and builds solutions, for healthy food and fair pay for farmers' work.

Taking action to protect natural resources and biodiversity

Because we will continue to import agricultural raw materials that cannot be produced locally and come from countries at risk of deforestation or conversion of endangered ecosystems, we are committed to ensuring that 100% of our palm and soya supplies come from sustainable agriculture by 2030. <br />

Taking action to develop local sectors

Because we care about keeping our regions dynamic, we are committed to speeding up the development of the local supply chains in all our fields of activity, from 2025 for 100% of our edible oils when the raw materials exist locally.

Taking action for our investments' impact

Because we want to have a positive impact on the regions and the environment, we are committed to ensuring that by 2030, 100% of our investments, whether industrial or financial, are based on economic, environmental and social criteria.

Taking action for the climate

Because we support the United Nations' objective of limiting global warming to 2°C, which is part of the Paris Agreements, we are committed to reducing all our direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions by 30% by 2030 (vs. reference year 2019).

Taking action for a collective and inclusive project

Because we believe in the strength of the collective, which is the origin of our model and our governance, we are committed to maintaining a constant and challenging dialogue with all our stakeholders.

A STRATEGY THAT CREATES SUSTAINABLE VALUE

Avril's strategy includes an economic and financial performance component that creates value for the sector and its players. It also includes a CSR approach called SPRING, which is part of a long-term vision based on four strategic priorities.
