STRATEGIC AXIS 2

People

Workers, community and society

Our food is produced by and intended for people. People come first, which is why we are committed to ensuring that our activities have lasting positive repercussions on society in general and on our workers in particular. We are committed to training and attracting talent, with special focus on Aragon and Catalonia.

Grupo Jorge Foundation

In 2021 we created the Grupo Jorge Foundation, in order to materialize our commitment to society in real, visible and effective actions, as well as being an instrument to improve the environment in which we operate.

Among other actions, a new Chair has been created in collaboration with the University of Zaragoza, with the aim of promoting training and applied research in various strategic lines of our industry (smart farms, sustainability of the food chain, etc.)

From the Foundation we have also coordinated humanitarian actions such as the collection and sending to Ukraine of supplies and basic necessities. We make monthly donations of products to the Zaragoza Food Bank and other specific donations, such as to those affected by the Ateca fire (2022).

We work to promote a future full of opportunities for people.
