Our Mission:
We believe in cooperation based on respect, appreciation and trust.
Together for Sustainability and Social Responsibility
We use the influence we have as a corporate group active worldwide to shape a sustainable future in which social responsibility, the protection of natural resources and economic efficiency go hand in hand. In a world that is changing rapidly, we are committed to diversity. Our promise to the people who help us shape the change: an appealing and healthy work environment, equal opportunities, health-promoting benefits, personal and professional training, and fair remuneration throughout the entire supply chain. Respect for and promotion of human rights are non-negotiable for us.
Our Focus is on People
People are what drive the companies of Schwarz Group. That is why we take employees, customers and partners with us on our journey towards more sustainable business – only together can we make the far-reaching changes needed for greater sustainability. With that in mind, the pillars of our cooperation are fairness, respect, unity and trust. These values are not just words; they are deeply held beliefs.
Shaping a World in Transition
A world in transition needs visionaries to shape it. A willingness to learn, develop and take new paths is essential in this regard. The companies of Schwarz Group help their employees to develop with tailored training that prepares them to meet future needs. Education is our most valuable raw material. However, our ambition of empowering people to act more sustainably does not stop with our employees. To achieve change across the board, the Lidl and Kaufland retail divisions also raise their customers’ awareness through a variety of different campaigns to encourage more sustainable behavior.
