On 15 February, Greenyard participated in the Fuel the Runner event, organised by ProVeg International and Tessa Avermaete (Run & Harvest), which explored the link between pure-plant nutrition and athletic performance at the University of Leuven.

For us, this event was about much more than just running. It was a valuable opportunity to reinforce our mission of making lives healthier by encouraging the consumption of fruit and vegetables throughout the day. After all, strong performances, in sport and in life, start with what’s on your plate.

During the lunch break, we hosted a stand featuring Gigi, our pure-plant gelato made from fruit and vegetables. Participants had the opportunity to discover our products firsthand, connecting directly with a community that values food transparency, innovation, and evidence-based nutrition.

And let's just say... they didn't stay in the freezer for long! They sold out in no time, which is a sweet reminder that pure-plant indulgence and performance can go hand in hand.

By collaborating with experts such as Tessa Avermaete, who specialises in the intersection of agricultural economics, sport and healthy consumption, we remain closely connected to evolving dietary trends and the latest scientific insights that are shaping the future of food.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for such an energising and insightful day. It was a reminder that smart nutrition starts with the basics: eating plenty of fruit and vegetables to boost performance and protect health in the long term. Together, we continue to fuel performance the pure-plant way.

Driving a sustainable future 🪴🌍

We have reduced our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 46% compared to 2020. This was mainly achieved through switching to renewable and low-carbon energy sources, as well as continuing to implement energy efficiency measures.

Key steps included:
✅ More than 60% of our electricity now comes from renewable sources.
✅ New solar panels in Belgium and the Netherlands doubled our on-site renewable energy production.
✅ Low-carbon fuels, the electrification of our transport fleet and battery-powered cooling systems are helping to reduce transport emissions.

Our roadmap remains aligned with a 1,5°C pathway as we continue to invest in technologies and partnerships that will help to build a more resilient and sustainable food system.

Every quarter, the Greenyard Fresh Belgium division gets together for a social event after work — and this time, they stepped into a virtual world.

There were VR games and plenty of laughs, and the team clearly connects just as well outside office hours as it does on the job. This is how we build strong bonds at Greenyard: in a relaxed, social setting that's full of fun.

Because growing together starts with spending time together. 💚

Three apples, one jar, and 24 years of craftsmanship!

Have you ever wondered what goes into that smooth, naturally sweet apple compote on the table? At Greenyard Prepared, it all starts close to home, with apples mainly grown in Belgium and the Netherlands.

We use a carefully balanced mix of Golden, Jonagold and other delicious varieties of apple. Around three apples are needed to fill just one 720 ml jar, and each one is checked and prepared with precision and care.

Every step, from washing and slicing to cooking, filling and labelling, is guided by strict quality controls to ensure consistent flavour, safety and freshness. Behind it all is a dedicated team with over 24 years' experience in perfecting this process, bringing craftsmanship and teamwork to every batch.

Each jar of our apple compote tells a pure-plant story of care, expertise, and respect for nature. It's designed to be enjoyed for a healthier future.

Find out more about our products and processes at https://www.greenyard.group/divisions/prepared, and discover how we produce one of the best apple compotes recently selected by a TV show in Belgium.
