Paris Agreement to Today

In 2019 Vion developed a new corporate strategy in order to create a demand-driving supply chain instead of a supply-driven commodity focus.[18] They created a roadmap for the years 2020-2024 called Building Balanced Chains (BBC).[19] Vion acknowledges their key role in the food chain as they are the connection between the farmers and the customers.[20] Vion has set three goals in order to create balanced food supply chains.[21]

1. Farm Management optimization. Through this goal, Vion wants to make all relevant data available to the farmers which they can use to optimize their management.

2. Protein valorization. In this goal, Vion wants to create a range of options for valorization from head to tail.

3. Product Specialization. Produce unique concepts and product innovations that tap into prevailing consumer trends.

Policies

Vion has set different targets for 9 different CRS topics. 5 social topics, 3 environmental topics, and 1 economic topic.[22] Each topic has its own KPI through which Vion measures their progress.[23] For example, of the topics is 'water usage of processing'. The KPI of this topic is 'usage of municipal water per tonne sold', and the target for 2021 is <1.55m3.[24] Furthermore, Vion has selected 6 different Sustainable Development Goals that they consider to match their targets.[25] The goals included are: Zero Hunger (2), Clean Water and Sanitation (6), Decent Work and Economic Growth (8), Responsible Consumption and Production (12), Climate Action (13), and Life on Land (15).

  • Employment and working conditions
