Around 14% of food produced globally is lost before it even reaches the supply chain. All of this, while there are 811 million people affected by hunger. This food loss and waste represents between 8 and 10% of the world’s CO2 emissions (FAO, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Reuse and reassess as a brand<\/h2>\n

This loss and waste of food generates a global social and environmental crisis that affects people and companies all over the world. In aims of raising awareness about this issue, at Real Conservera Espa\u00f1ola, as a part of our transparency policy, we want to inform a little bit more about the reuse cycle present in our production process.

One of Real Conservera Espa\u00f1ola’s main values is its commitment to excelence and quality. This means that not all fish and seafood meet our quality standards.

Reuse and revalue as a consumer<\/h2>\n

We want to be a part of the movement to reduce the food waste and loss that we are facing all over the world, both as a company and as a consumer.<\/p>\n

Excellence and quality are two of our fundamental values as a company, but so are social and environmental involvement. As a team, we want to provide a product that surpasses all expectations while making sure to generate as little waste as possible, something we also encourage our customers to do. For example:<\/p>\n
