During 2021, Greenfood continued to consolidate its position as a leader in healthy and sustainable food. The year was marked by a strong recovery after the corona pandemic, a stable result and a strong balance sheet. But it was also a year of important investments in digitization and sustainability.

In recent years, Greenfood has taken several important steps forward in the work of shifting to more sustainable packaging solutions. Mainly to minimize environmental impact but also to improve the products' functionality. Thanks to new packaging measures, Greenfood's plastic consumption is reduced by 217 tonnes/year.

Innovative packaging and a circular approach that maximizes the use of raw materials. These are just a few examples of how Greenfood is constantly working to reduce food waste. The group is now taking the next step by joining SAMS (Cooperation for reduced food waste), a national agreement on food waste reduction.

Greenfood owned Picadeli has established its food concept in several European markets. In addition, the digitized salad bar has just launched in the United States.

To be able to move forward, it can sometimes be a good idea to look back. A new climate-smart food concept based on Swedish cultural heritage crops will break through young people's prejudices about plants and prove once and for all that it is the food of the future.

Greenfood attaches great importance to minimizing the environmental and climate footprint of its packaging. Therefore, Daily Green's banana boxes are now being replaced with a brand-new box made from 100 percent recycled paper. The new banana box reduces emissions of carbon dioxide equivalents by 308 kg per tonne of recycled paper, and no new wood raw material is used - in one year the new boxes s

Food tech is on the rise, and IT and tech skills are becoming increasingly important. For Greenfood, a leading grocery group in the field of healthy food, one of the success factors has been to expand recruitment beyond traditional food processing expertise and hire programmers, engineers and AI specialists.

Greenfood-owned Ahlströms is continuing to develop its range of plant-based alternatives under the Ahlgood brand.
