Sustainable business

“Access to food like bread is not always a given for everyone, and our products contain high-quality ingredients. That’s why we believe every crumb counts, and are committed to preventing food waste and putting all products to good use.”

Bakkerij Holland

Sustainable business is important to us. We are continuously optimising our processes and always looking for the best sustainable solution. We believe that by working efficiently and well together, minimising food waste and using as little energy as possible per loaf baked, we can make a positive contribution to tomorrow’s world

MINIMISING FOOD WASTE

Food waste is an important sustainability topic in society and likewise at Bakkerij Holland. Different ingredients, skills and resources go into making our bread. When bread is wasted, it means these resources have been consumed unnecessarily.

One of the product groups we make is fresh bread, which is delivered to various supermarkets every day. If these products are not sold by the end of the day, they are used as high-quality ingredients and processed into animal feed.

TRANSPORT AND
LOGISTICS

Every day we face the same challenge: delivering to 550 addresses at the right place and the right time. More than 75 drivers are on the road daily throughout the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Belgium and Germany. Moreover, we have a young vehicle fleet including lorries equipped with fuel-efficient engines and LNG lorries. Our goal is sustainability in every layer of our business operations.
