ProgrammesThe Foodies is a sustainability award for small and medium-sized enterprises and impact start-ups in the EU agri-food sector. It is linked to SIAL Paris and supported by the European Commission. The award highlights sustainability work across four categories aligned with the EU Code of Conduct on Responsible Food Business and Marketing Practices.
The award covers four categories. Greener Planet looks at action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across operations and the wider food chain, such as lower energy use, renewable energy, better logistics and low-carbon technologies. Nutrition Action focuses on products and practices that help consumers move towards healthy and sustainable diets, including reformulation, new products, suitable portion sizes and clearer information. Circular Chain looks at prevention of food loss and waste, efficient resource use, by-product valorisation, redistribution, and packaging or process innovation. Shared Value covers decent work, resilient growth, fair partnerships, and responsible sourcing, including deforestation-free and socially sustainable practices.
Interested SMEs and impact start-ups can review the category descriptions and eligibility details, and apply through the Foodies website.
