our commitments

“In recent years, our CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) approach has gradually been structured. Our think tank has brought out three values that structure Groix and Nature’s commitment to CSR issues: Attachment to the territory and our environment, Integrity, and Commitment to our products.”

Commitment to the territory and our environment

Attachment to the territory is a value that reflects our deep commitment to the preservation and enhancement of our local territory and our natural environment. At Groix and Nature, we understand the importance of protecting the local resources that are at the heart of our activity.

BICHE, LAST DUNDEE OF GROIX ISLAND

To support our local heritage, we participate and annually finance the Fonds social et solidaire du Biche, whose objective is to offer young school children, associations acting for the social inclusion of people with disabilities, the most vulnerable, "A day at sea aboard the Thonier Biche", the last tuna boat on the island of Groix.This initiative allows participants to discover maritime heritage while offering them a unique sailing experience. The Biche tuna boat is a symbol of our cultural and maritime heritage.Through our support, this project also contributes to the preservation of the Biche tuna, thus ensuring its sustainability for future generations. We are proud to participate in this great human and solidarity adventure.

SNSM, NATIONAL SOCIETY FOR RESCUE AT SEA

Groix and Nature undertakes to donate 1% of the sales made on its website to the SNSM of Groix.Founded in 1967, its primary vocation is the commitment of volunteers to the protection of human life at sea and on the beaches. Through this initiative, every purchase made on-site contributes directly to supporting sea rescue operations, providing valuable assistance to volunteer rescuers who risk their lives to save the lives of others.This collaboration underlines the importance of solidarity and mutual aid within coastal communities, making it possible to strengthen the SNSM’s resources and ensure better maritime security for all.

LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS

As a local actor, Groix and Nature supports local cultural events.Partner for many years of the Festival des Vieilles Charrues and the Festival Interceltique de Lorient, Groix et Nature is committed to promoting the cultural richness of the region by actively contributing to these emblematic events.In addition to supporting these major festivals, the company also participates in other local cultural and artistic initiatives, thus reinforcing its territorial anchorage and its role in the valorisation of Breton cultural heritage.

DECARBON'ACTION

We know the crucial role companies play in protecting our environment. This is why we decided to engage in the Decarbon'Action project set up by ADEME, ABC and BPI France, allowing us to achieve our greenhouse gas (GHG) balance and reduce our carbon footprint in a sustainable way. This initiative is fully in line with our CSR approach and is a significant step towards reducing our carbon footprint.For this, we decided to be accompanied by the SAMI agency that specializes in CSR commitments to help companies measure and reduce their environmental footprint. This support will allow us to benefit from expertise and implement effective action plans to reduce our carbon footprint.

our actions and indicators

Commitment of our products

The commitment of our products reflects our determination to offer products of very high quality, respectful of the environment and meeting the expectations of our customers. We pay particular attention to the importance of short circuits, local partners and products and careful selection of ingredients.

The quality and authenticity of our products are essential to us. Thus, we are committed to using quality ingredients, favoring the short circuit and local products. 96% of our raw material suppliers are French and mainly located in Brittany.

We also decided to launch an internal panel for tasting new products and thus guarantee their taste and quality.

In addition to carefully selecting our ingredients, we source mostly locally for our island counter, supporting our local producers, artisans and partners.

Integrity

Integrity is a core value that guides our actions and decisions. It means full transparency to our customers, employees, partners and all stakeholders. It also means creating an inclusive, supportive and respectful work environment where everyone can thrive.

Live my life

Live my life

For a day, employees discover and live a different job than theirs to understand the specificities of each position.
This makes it possible to create links between employees and to grow the collective spirit.

Conviviality

Conviviality

Groix & Nature is actively committed to maintaining friendliness within its teams through various events throughout the year.
Among these moments of sharing, we find the end of year meal, family outings, participatory lunches or the cleaning of the beaches of Groix.

solidarity action

solidarity action

All our sales materials, furniture, wooden boats and boxes are made or assembled by ESAT (Establishments and services of accompaniment by the work), dedicated to people with disabilities helping with their social and professional integration or reintegration located in Morbihan and Finistère.
This approach allows them to promote access and autonomy while offering them a protected professional environment.

CSR Committee

CSR Committee

As part of the CSR committees, the Groix & Nature teams meet throughout the year to discuss initiatives and actions aimed at strengthening our positive societal and environmental impact.
The opportunity for us to discuss various topics including the actions taken and their results, but also to present the objectives and projects for the year that will focus on three themes on which our teams will be able to act «people», «energies», “the territory”.
These meetings are also an opportunity to strengthen our team spirit and commitment to our shared values and to work together for a more responsible future.
