Acting together

People are at the heart of our project. At Bonduelle, we pay particular attention to working conditions, skills development and the quality of the relationships we build with our employees, partners and the communities in the areas where we operate.

I make a greater impact on others

Rooted in the communities where we operate.

Across all our sites, we seek to build lasting relationships with local stakeholders and foster a working environment where everyone can find their place, develop their skills and be recognized for their contribution. This approach is reflected in our day-to-day collaboration across teams, as well as in the long-term relationships we build with our partner farmers, customers and suppliers.

Bonduelle’s family roots give us a certain type of strength:
we are ready to dialog and evolve over time.

Our educational and instructional initiatives

We work hand in hand with the Louis Bonduelle Foundation to develop scientific knowledge and promote the desire for and access to healthy and sustainable food. From educationally-oriented urban farms in Quebec (The Urbainculteurs) to culinary workshops run by major chefs for disadvantaged families in France (La Tablée des chefs) and support for the development of an educational program on the ecological transition in France (OUI CHANGE), the Louis Bonduelle Foundation has been stepping up its initiatives in schools to educate young people about plant-based food. Wherever we are, our employees are committed to projects that are close to their heart to make a positive impact on others.

Our actions to support farmers

A win-win relationship, based on real expertise and guarantees: fair prices, guaranteed income, agronomic aid, etc. We pool the risks associated with the inevitable variations in yields due to weather-related issues. Today, 85% of farmers renew their contract with us each year.

Our actions to foster employment and local development

Our canned food, fresh products and frozen food plants are located near the fields. Although simple, this encourages the development of local economies through access to employment in sometimes disadvantaged employment areas. And we don't stop there! From the "Jeunes Pousses Program" to "Pépinière de talents" and Finance for Growth, we are expanding our training programs so that our employees can gain more expertise.
