Cereal Terra was founded in 1990 at the foot of the Alps out of a deep conviction that a correct and healthy diet is the first step towards a better life.

Right from the start, our organic products have been made by craftsmanship based on listening and experience, in harmony with the scents and colours of the earth, cultivated without offending it, letting it transmit all the secrets of its history to its fruits.

SUSTAINABILITY

Our production is carefully controlled and oriented towards environmental, social and economic sustainability. Every decision - from the choice of raw materials to energy consumption and waste management - is made with ethics and environmental impact in mind.

  1. Raw materials: We carefully select raw materials and suppliers, assessing quality and responsibility.
  2. Energy consumption: Since 2018, we have been using a photovoltaic system that covers 60% of our plant's energy needs.
  3. Water resource: We recover groundwater for industrial washing and employ purification and recycling systems. Hot water generated by production processes is reused for heating the plant and for other internal uses, thus reducing natural gas consumption.
  4. Waste management: All waste is scrupulously sorted to encourage recycling and promote a circular economy.
SAFETY AND QUALITY

Health and safety are core values. Our quality department follows every step, from the arrival of raw materials to the finished product, with strict controls. We are IFS certified.

Over the years, we have invested in advanced technologies and efficient production processes, guaranteeing safe, quality and long-life ready meals.

TRADITION AND TERRITORY

Since 1990, Cereal Terra has been deeply rooted in its territory, which represents our identity and strength. We support a local development model based on shared value between company, people and community.

We collaborate with local realities, such as the non-profit organisation Solagnon, engaged in educational and productive projects in Togo. In addition, we rely on a social cooperative for packaging activities.
