Short chain in the food industry

At Colac, we create products with superior taste and of highest quality. This implies using the best ingredients with respect for the environment and ecological climate. This is why whenever possible, we look for local suppliers with whom we can develop a sustainable partnership.

The best blueberries from the Netherlands

Handje Gezond is one of our suppliers that provides us with the best local ingredients. Together with his wife and three of their four children, Willy takes care of the cultivation and growing of the berries with devotion and passion. It's a young SME and family business that grows blueberries and supplies them to us for further processing. They also uphold sustainability themselves; for example, they generate their own energy and consciously look for local producers.

 

For us, this short chain and close cooperation means the fast processing of a high-quality ingredient into a delicious fruit prepartion.

The collaboration with Handje Gezond is just the beginning. Sustainability will become increasingly important in the future, which is why we want to produce more sustainably by looking for more collaborations like the one with Handje Gezond. Sustainability is no stranger to us; just last year we were the first-ever recipient of the Greener Planet Award.
