AXis 1 : WE CARE ABOUT OUR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

Partners of the Syroco start-up

Since January 2023, we have been very proud and happy to support the Marseilles-based start-up Syroco for 2 years in its world record and environmental innovation projects. Syroco has set itself the goal of smashing the world sailing speed record, behind its co-founder Alex Caizergues, who already holds numerous international kitesurfing records.

In addition to its sporting and technical achievements, Syroco is also committed to supporting the energy transition in maritime transport through technological innovation. As a company committed to the region and involved in its energy transition, we decided to support Syroco's project.

Today, almost 90% of the world's goods are traded by sea. This trade is responsible for 3% of global CO2 emissions. To reduce this environmental impact, Syroco is developing an innovative digital twin technology to decarbonise maritime transport by making ships more efficient and environmentally friendly.

Our goods travel almost exclusively by sea, both for import and export. So it was clear that a project generating innovation to decarbonise maritime transport made sense for the Group.

On February 10, 2023, Syroco welcomed our team to their workshop in Anse du Pharo, to sign the partnership agreement and place the "Groupe Brousse" logo on the radio-controlled prototype.

Committed to the fight against food waste

With all our subsidiaries, we are committed to the fight against food waste through regular donations to local food banks. True to our DNA and in response to today's challenges, we have to be responsible in order to limit food waste as much as possible. What we can't sell, we donate to those in need.

Attentive to the distribution of responsible packaging

Since their creation, all our brands' products have been designed with our partners to use as much environmentally-friendly and recyclable packaging as possible, such as cans and cardboard packaging. Our long-term aim is to offer only 100% recyclable packaging, while limiting the amount of plastic used.
