Andros strives to maintain the highest standards of ethics and integrity in our operations, respecting the rule of law, human dignity, and the rights of the individual. Moreover, we aspire to safe and healthy working environments, while focusing on reducing the environmental impact of our operations.
Andros takes great pride in crafting high-quality products that exemplify our sustainable approach. We start with a thorough sourcing process that helps identify the best possible combination of ground, climate, and variety, as well as all human considerations.
It is our responsiveness and adaptability that inform Andros’ sustainability best practices, which reach well beyond agriculture. Everything involving the fruits themselves must also align with the company’s core values.
Andros’ commitment to protect the natural environment is of critical importance since farmers are facing an increasing number of problematic climate hazards. We try and foster long-term relationships with – and therefore are closely connected to – fruit producers around the world, attentive to every change that might affect the end product. This sometimes involves helping farmers in each country to introduce a new crop or helping them approach their activity in a new, technologically relevant way.
Andros follows best practices when disposing of garbage, sustainable energy sources, water efficiency, composting, waste reduction, and recycling.
Andros makes every effort to ensure that we:
• Avoid harming the lives of local and indigenous people.
• Support diversity and inclusion.
• Ensure health and safety training for all Andros teammates.
• Broaden the hiring of teammates with disabilities.
• Increase Andros’ Quality of Life at Work initiatives.
• Give back to the communities we work in.
Andros is dedicated to abiding by all fair labor practices and protecting human rights – both within our company and with the partner suppliers we work with. We ensure that our activities respect the rights of each worker and that, directly or indirectly, we do not violate human rights in any country.
