“On the Road with Pedon” is a company initiative for young children to explore and learn about nutrition. The project has proved a resounding success, attracting great approval and enthusiasm. The food education workshop is designed for local primary schools and engages kids in fun learning activities that provide an opportunity for them to learn more about the world of grains, legumes and seeds and discover their incredible and surprising properties.

The Pedon raw materials supply chain aims to provide not only a guarantee of quality standards but also economic, environmental, and social sustainability.

Pedon’s supply chain management is based on three key principles:

• Traceability of raw ingredients throughout the entire production process;
• Supplier relationships built on transparency, dialogue and fairness;
• Economic, social and environmental sustainability.

In an effort to bring generosity to life in a tangible and effective way, the Company organises corporate volunteering days, in partnership with Banco Alimentare.
The days are an opportunity for volunteers to take part in the food bank’s activities, lending a hand in warehouse operations and learning more about the charity’s outstanding work. 
Moreover, with a view to maintaining an ongoing partnership throughout the year, Pedon collaborates with Banco Alimentare through the “Lenticchia Pedina” product.

By donating over 55.000 portions of legumes and grains to families in need and helping cover the costs of recovering and distributing food equivalent to 125.000 meals across the national territory.

SELF-PRODUCTION FROM RENEWABLE SOURCES

The evolution of Pedon’s energy strategy towards greater energy self-sufficiency led to the installation in FY 2023/2024 of a new photovoltaic power station consisting of 2,403 panels placed on the entire extension of the Colceresa plant. 
The power station enables the self-production of 30% of the company’s energy needs at full capacity.

100% ENERGY FROM RENEWABLE SOURCES

Renewable energy accounts for 100% of the remaining share of electricity consumption, purchased from certified renewable sources, in particular wind power. This choice underlines Pedon’s commitment to supporting clean, green technologies that can contribute significantly to a carbon-neutral future.
