Our sustainability strategy is in keeping with the European Green Deal and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) defined by the United Nations.

Food Safety in Our Products

At Citrusvil, we have our own integrated production system and work to offer top-quality products in order to be strategic allies to our clients around the world.

For this reason, we adhere to the most important international standards for quality, food safety, environmental protection, and our workers’ health and safety.

In this way, all the stages in our production processes combine to guarantee a top-quality product, maximizing efficiency and minimizing impact.

SEGURIDAD ALIMENTARIA

Healthy and Safe Products for Our Clients

We believe that quality is also the result of a sustainable and traceable supply chain, from our orchards to the doorsteps of those who choose our products.

These continuous improvement processes and our Integrated Management System enable us to access the most demanding global markets.

Rational Use of Water

We are a Zero Effluent company.

Water is an essential natural resource for life on the planet and in food production. Therefore, we are committed to its efficient and responsible management.

USO RACIONAL DEL AGUA

We are moving forward with our Climate Plan

The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) approved our goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 and our near- and long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets.

This commitment is in line with climate science and the Paris Agreement and positions us as a global leader in the decarbonization journey in the citrus industry.

SBTi - Science Based Target

Through circular economy practices, we reduce the use of resources in production, maximize their use, and ensure their proper disposal, prioritizing material recovery and reuse.

We generate renewable energy from our liquid effluents, and we produce compost for our orchards from organic solid waste.

ECONOMIA CIRCULAR

Biodiversity is the diversity of life, that is to say, the variety of living beings that exist on the planet and the relations they establish with each other and with their surrounding environment.

Therefore, our purpose is to strike a balance between the conservation of biodiversity and its habitat and agricultural production in areas of high environmental value.

We promote and respect universally recognized human rights.

We comply with the applicable law, ensuring decent working conditions, professional development, knowledge improvement, and equal opportunities, and involving our value chain in this commitment.

PROTECCION Y RESPETO DE LOS DERECHOS HUMANOS

We foster a culturally respectful work environment that promotes equality, is sensitive to the needs of all collaborators, and respects diversity.

We are committed to establishing healthy relations among collaborators, as well as good business relations with our suppliers, clients, advisors, competitors, and the general public.

Every time one of them chooses us, such choice is based on our attributes, their trust in our products, and the way we conduct our business.

RESPONSABILIDAD Y TRANSPARENCIA

Our social investment actions aim to improve people's capabilities by promoting their autonomy, training, and full social insertion through our actions in our communities of influence.

Since 2003, through Fundación Vicente Lucci, we have channeled our social capital actions based on three strategic pillars that generate impact in Grupo Lucci’s rural communities of influence.
