We believe in a world where people enjoy safe and healthy food from sustainable sources. By bringing people together we build future proof protein chains and provide Food that Matters. In our view Food that Matters is tasty and healthy, comes from upgraded demand-driven chains, provides a fair income for farmers and other chain partners, is produced with respect for animals and people and sets standards on reducing environmental impact.
We are in the center of the food chain and see it as our role to connect and balance demand and supply. We do so by Building Balanced Chains to give farmers a future and customers a difference. Such as the Good Farming Star chain with one star Beter Leven, De Groene Weg with organic meat, Geprüfte Qualität Bayern with Simmentaler, and ME-AT, our plant-based meat alternatives supply chain.
As an international food company, Vion has production locations in the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium and sales support offices worldwide. With our four Business Units - Pork, Beef, Retail and Food Service - we provide fresh pork, beef, meat products, plant based alternatives and by-products for retail, foodservice and the meat processing industry. We supply customers in our home markets of the Netherlands and Germany, as well as in other countries all over the world. With over 12,000 employees and a revenue of € 4.9 billion in 2020 we are in the world's top 100 of food & beverage companies.
