Social commitment

Together we give something back to society

Commitment is part of our DNA

For us, responsibility begins with the people in the countries where the raw ingredients for our products are cultivated. For example, OTG, our largest subsidiary, focuses on strong partnerships at the tea's place of origin and improves the living and working conditions of the local people through concrete projects. Furthermore, we and our owners also place great importance on supporting the people in our region. Therefore, we promote concrete projects that support those in need, offer young people opportunities, and strengthen economic initiatives.
