Healthy, fair, organic food! That is what citizens are really looking for in times like these, all around Europe. Switzerland is currently heading for a total ban on synthetic pesticides and Germany is working on a law that obligates companies to buy and sell only socially responsible goods. Things are changing fast.

PRESS RELEASE - Waddinxveen, World Bee Day, 20 May 2021

Eosta's Living Wage mango's and avocado's are gaining traction in the market. Eight health food chains and retailers in Scandinavia, Germany, Austria and the Netherlands are selling these fair products. Nevertheless some people are still unfamiliar with the concept. In this interview with the #LivingWageLab, Eosta's quality manager Gert-Jan Lieffering explains why it matters: "In many countries a worker  is guaranteed a minimum wage, but that is not a Living Income. If you want to pay a Living Wage, you need to involve all parties within the value chain: the supplier, seller and consumer.".

My name is Johannes and I grow organic oranges, lemons and mandarins for Nature & More in the East Cape province of South Africa. Our company grows organic citrus together with one other independent organic farmer. Thank you for buying our fruit!

As always, this summer Eosta will be supplying organic Nature & More Citrus / Lemons from South Africa, Peru & Chile. We thought it would be interesting to check in with Citrus Product Manager Robert van Melle.
