Our stakeholders and partnerships

As a global feed company, we influence a diverse group of stakeholders. At the same time, our stakeholders' viewpoints and decisions also have an impact on the success of our business. Therefore, ongoing engagement with our key stakeholders is inherent in our way of working. Dialogue helps build trust, which is one of Nutreco’s core values. We appreciate every opportunity to listen to our stakeholders, identify trends, address critical issues and build partnerships.

Key partnerships

We are actively involved in the European Feed Manufacturers’ Federation (FEFAC) and are committed to promote a sustainable future for our industry. The organisation’s president, Pedro Cordero is from Nutreco - appointed in 2022. Pedro actively represents FEFAC's interests, while at the same time ensuring we at Nutreco live up to our responsibility, as part of the food chain, to help produce safe, sustainable and healthy food for the global population.

Nutreco participates actively in all FEFAC committees, including the regulatory and sustainability committees, supporting our sector through dialogue.

Global Salmon Initiative (GSI)

One important way we are helping advance the salmon sector is through our membership in the Global Salmon Initiative (GSI).
