Serious about responsibility

Conditorei Coppenrath & Wiese is a commercial enterprise that takes its social and environmental responsibilities extremely seriously. As Europe’s largest producer of frozen desserts, we are driven by the idea that future generations should have all the opportunities for life what we enjoy today. That’s why we manage our business activities sustainably. We have been working on reducing the environmental impact of our products and services for around ten years. We have already done much to improve things – but we want to do even more.

In our view, sustainability is a long-term business and not just a single short-term measure. That’s why it is integral to our maintenance and optimisation system in every area of production. With our comprehensive approach, we are continuing to reduce the amount of resources we use in relation to our production volumes. We are also doing much to underpin our frozen foods manufacturing with more sustainable concepts.
