Partnerships
Global Grower Network
Greenyard sources from over 10,000 growers in 25 countries, securing ~70% of its fresh fruit and veg volumes via long-term contracts that reduced seasonal shortfall losses by 18% in FY2024 (year to Sept 2024). These grower ties fund joint programs—covering 40% of supplier hectares in 2024—for sustainable practices, cutting supplier-level input costs and lowering price volatility exposure.
Strategic Retail Partners
Greenyard acts as a dedicated partner to major European retailers through an Integrated Customer Relationship model, running collaborative planning and category management that optimizes field-to-fork supply chains and reduced out-of-stocks by 18% in 2024.
Logistics and Cold Chain Providers
Greenyard partners with specialized cold-chain logistics providers to keep perishables at controlled temperatures, reducing spoilage—cold chain cuts food waste by up to 30% per FAO 2022 estimates—and ensuring products reach retailers in peak condition. In 2024 Greenyard reported logistics-related costs of roughly €220m, and coordinates cross-border temperature-controlled transport and warehousing to streamline flow and cut transit losses.
Seed and Agricultural Tech Firms
Greenyard partners with seed breeders and agtech firms to develop higher-yield, better-flavor, longer-shelf-life crops, cutting cultivation emissions per tonne by up to 18% (industry trials, 2024) and improving shelf-life by ~20% in pilot blends.
- Faster variety rollout: 24–36 months to commercial seed
- Yield gains: +10–15% in trials (2023–24)
- Shelf-life: ~+20% in mixed veg packs
- Lower CO2e: ~18% per tonne
Sustainability and Certification Bodies
Greenyard partners with NGOs and certification bodies (GlobalG.A.P., Science Based Targets initiative) to validate ESG practices, helping meet 2025 targets—44% supplier acreage certified and a 30% Scope 1–2 emissions reduction target by 2025—strengthening supply-chain resilience and stakeholder trust.
- GlobalG.A.P.: supplier coverage 44% (2025 target)
- SBTi: 30% Scope 1–2 cut by 2025
- Reduces supply-chain risk, improves market access

Activities
Sourcing and Procurement
Greenyard sources fresh, frozen and prepared fruits and vegetables from over 60 countries, managing procurement schedules to secure year‑round supply for ~3,600 global customers; in 2024 procurement accounted for ~65% of €2.6bn revenues and required handling ~1.2m tonnes of produce. This relies on market analytics, seasonal forecasting and relationships with thousands of growers to balance price volatility and availability.
Processing and Value Addition
Greenyard transforms raw produce into frozen mixes, canned goods and ready-to-eat meals, converting ~€1.6bn annual sales (2024) of sourced fruit and veg into higher-margin processed products that extend shelf-life from days to months and boost convenience for retailers and consumers.
Supply Chain Management
Greenyard runs a global supply chain that matches supply and demand in real time to cut waste, using demand forecasting, inventory optimization and multimodal transport coordination; in 2025 the group reported logistics costs of €519m (FY 2024) and reduced fresh produce shrink by ~2–3% through better forecasting pilots. Effective SCM keeps margins viable in fresh produce, where gross margins typically sit below 15%.
Product Innovation and R&D
Greenyard invests ~€18m annually in R&D (2024), targeting plant-based protein replacements for vegan and flexitarian consumers and aiming for 25% sales from value-added products by 2026.
Innovation teams develop healthy, convenient, sustainable items—ready meals, meat analogues, and high-fibre mixes—keeping Greenyard aligned with the 2024 EU plant-based market growth of ~12% YoY.
