Our people: involvement, inclusion, training and protecting health
Our employees are essential for sustainable growth. In line with the Group’s values, our people are the driving force of the company and the reason for its success. The focus on people management can be seen in the selection, hiring and training procedures for new employees, regardless of whether they have permanent or temporary contracts.
Supply chain: transparency and supporting local communities
Knowing that the sustainability of the supply chain is a key component of company responsibility, promoting commercial best practices throughout the product lifecycle is an essential asset in our management. We strive to choose partners that, like us, encourage the respectful management of people, the environment and their business.
Overall, in FY 2022, 79% of purchases were made in Italy, 63% from local communities in Tuscany and Veneto.
