OUR ENGAGEMENTS
Respect for our customers and our products
A responsible company
Because we consider that the fruit is a true gift of nature, we transform it respecting it as much as possible. Our specific drying process is done under vacuum and at a low temperature. We do not add any coloring, flavoring or preservative: the natural assets of the fruits are thus preserved, both the flavor and the nutritional values.Most of our fruits are also available organic.
We are proud to have evolved our company, which embraces high standards and responsible conduct. Through long-established relationships, we take pride in what we do every day, and we continually improve by investing in our production technologies, supply chain and people.
All this allows us to ensure that our customers receive the best sustainable, fresh and high quality products.
Sustainable development
Because the preservation of the world in which we live is one of our main concerns, FRUITOFOOD engages in various approaches related to sustainable development.
PROCESS
Our manufacturing process consumes very little energy and generates zero waste!
Did you know ?
During vacuum dehydration, a fruit loses about 90% of its weight in water. At Fruitofood, we use this by-product rather than losing it: the water from the fruit is recovered and upgraded in the form of Onativ'®, used in cosmetics. Fruitofood is thus one of the only players in France to use 100% of the raw material of the fruit.
SOURCING
Launch of sustainable sourcing; an assurance of respect for our planet
Range innovation!
In 2017, Fruitofood innovates and develops a new "Origin" range for its fruits.
Apples from Anjou, Mirabelle plums from Lorraine, blackcurrants from Burgundy, apricots from Rhône-Alpes, pomelo from Corsica or figs from Sollies, these products are 100% French!
52% of French people favor local products from the short circuit!

ECO-RESPONSIBILITY
An external and internal approach, present on a daily basis
Did you know ?
Fruitofood is located in the heart of the Perche regional natural park, in a town of less than 900 inhabitants, close to homes. This is why it is particularly essential for us not to emit polluting emissions or noise pollution.
We also apply a strict waste management and selective sorting policy every day. The whole team is involved in helping to preserve our planet.
In 2021, Fruitofood recycled 16.8 kg of masks used during the COVID-19 pandemic, in partnership with mesdechetsdebureau.com!
FRUITOFOOD; values and people!
In our company, we think about the well-being and development of everyone. The working conditions of our teams are at the center of our concerns and safety always comes first. We are in a logic of skills development while being attentive to individual needs and desires.
Involving all our teams in the future of the company means recognizing that each person has something to contribute!
From office staff to production staff: we all work together with respect for each other, to best meet the requirements of our customers. On the other hand, we seek to establish partnerships with local companies that improve the integration of people in difficulty.
A CSR POLICY
tour for the group Plantes & Fruits
Towards a common improvement approach, such is the group's conviction.
Sustainable Development, and now Corporate Social Responsibility, play an essential role in all sectors of activity. It is a strategic issue, differentiating and creating values, which allows to have a global vision of the performance of the company or the organization; it is an ethic that gives meaning and
project consistency.
Committed to a responsible approach, we take into account the environmental, social, societal and governance dimensions at each stage of our growth, to be in line with the values that are ours. Everyone, within our various organizations, contributes, through their daily action, to supporting us on this path. The entire Group is ready to take up the major challenges of sustainable development, and make Plantes & Fruits an ever more committed and responsible holding company!
