Environmental impact
"Together, composting and feeding the soil." Les Alchimistes collect food waste from over 5,000 professionals across almost 30 French urban areas and turn it into certified compost. Every tonne collected and processed avoids 278 kg of CO2 compared to traditional incineration or landfill routes.
Social impact
True to its convictions, the company hires people from back-to-work employment programs for almost half of its operational roles.
With Cyrielle and Gaétan, we invested in a company that stands as a model in the impact space, for the relevance of its service offering, its proactive commitment to acting across its entire social and environmental ecosystem, and the quality of its management and governance. We are pleased to support a pioneering company in building a new national recycling network for food waste and food product residues. Just as nature itself does, it "closes the loop," transforming waste into compost, which brings our soils back to life.
