INDUSTRY and ENVIRONMENT

Valia at the heart of industry

Industry knowledge: an advantage for your project's longevity

Beyond product development, Valia brings you its industry knowledge that has been acquired through various developments undertaken since its creation.
Valia is unique in that we work just as well with poultry, meat, fish and cheese, so you will have the advantage of expertise from a multi-industry supplier.
We are true partners in your project, and our experience allows us to help you decide what strategic choices to make (choice of ingredients, choice of products, how often to buy, etc.) Valia R&D can also advise you and steer you towards the best strategic choice for your project’s success!

Valia values the base products in recipes

Since Valia’s creation, we have always placed major importance on the value of food products, and this is where our company’s name came from – “VALorisation des Ingrédients Alimentaires” (French for “Valuing Food Ingredients”).
Our industry knowledge and our close relationships with suppliers allows us to work in this way.

The environment as a key concern

We care deeply about the future of our planet and what we will pass down to the next generations, so we work everyday to protect and respect the environment. We take action for this cause particularly though:

– Reducing our waste,
– Sorting, recycling and reusing ingredients and packaging,
– Managing energy use (consumption, emissions, improving energy efficiency, etc.),
– Protecting resources,
– Raising awareness among staff, preventing waste.

For each project, the right formula !
