Code of Conduct

At Plukon Food Group, we believe in doing business with integrity and responsibility. Our Code of Conduct defines how we work and collaborate – both internally and with our business partners. This document sets out our core values, ethical guidelines and standards of behaviour. It is our way of making sure everyone knows what we expect from our employees, subsidiaries, suppliers and business partners (and their respective upstream business partners), as well as what we stand for.

Why have a Code of Conduct?
As one of Europe’s leading food companies, we recognize that we have a significant responsibility. We dedicate ourselves to sustainably produced food, fair business practices and respect for people, animals and the environment. Our Code of Conduct helps us put these principles into practice on a daily basis.

Our six core principles:

We comply with the law

We always follow EU legislation and national regulations of the countries in which we operate.

We provide responsibly produced food

We handle products with the utmost care and always follow food safety and hygiene standards.

We respect people, animals and the environment

Violence, discrimination, intimidation or abuse will not be tolerated. We provide a safe workplace, treat animals with respect and look after the environment.

We conduct business with integrity

We promote fair competition and a level playing field by conducting business with integrity. We have a zero-tolerance policy on alcohol and drugs that must be observed by all who work for us.

We protect our assets, information and interests

It is our shared responsibility to protect company assets and confidential information.

We work closely with our business partners

We build strong, reliable relationships with our suppliers and partners, while complying with our Code of Conduct.

Building a transparent corporate culture together

Anyone affiliated with Plukon has a responsibility to act in accordance with our Code of Conduct. If you witness behaviour that is not in line with our Code of Conduct, then it is important to report this. Contact your designated Plukon contact person, or our HR or legal department.
