Our strategy

The Plant Positive Way is our vision for the future. We want to unlock the full potential of plants to create smart and sustainable solutions for current and future generations. Our strategy called Unlock 25 describes how we aim to achieve this.

Focus on a sustainable future

By making optimum use of our crops, we add value for our members, our customers, our partners and society. We defined three strategic pillars and four key areas in which to focus our activities and secure future-proof growth in areas with the most opportunities. Our people, partnerships, innovation and communication play a crucial role in helping us achieve our ambitions.

Sugar beets

We use all components of the sugar beet to create maximum value.

Potatoes

Our potato products are seeing continuous growth in Europe and China.

Plant-based ingredients

We respond to the increase demand for healthy, green ingredients such as plant-based proteins, dietary fibres and biobased raw materials.

Circular co-products

Our co-products are the driving force behind our circular production goals and form an additional circular source of fibres, proteins and biobased ingredients.

Building a sustainable future for our chain

With initiatives like Groeikracht and our impressive carbon reduction programme, our efforts are driven by our commitment to create a sustainable, future-proof chain with the goal of adding value for our members, our customers and our stakeholders. We also want to make a positive social impact in the long term. Every day, our 4,200 employees, 8,100 growers, and dedicated Cosun partners are driven by their knowledge, passion and experience in pursuit of our common goal.
