YOUR HEALTH
Grupo IFA and Gasol Foundation join together to give you tips on nutrition that will help you look after your health.
GRUPO IFA AND GASOL FOUNDATION, A PARTNERSHIP FOR HEALTH
The partnership of Grupo IFA and Gasol Foundation was created from a desire to promote healthy habits in Spanish society and thus improve the health of the generations to come. We are going to launch a series of prevention and awareness-raising actions aimed at facing this challenge.
We will take advantage of Grupo IFA’s proximity and wide geographical reach to combat the bad eating habits which represent one of today’s most serious problems and affect child and family health.
WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?
The agreement signed between Grupo IFA and Gasol Foundation includes a wide range of activities and programmes in the field of nutrition and sport.
It is a commitment to a long-term pedagogic undertaking, with
a clear educational and training component.
This will include practical actions at Grupo IFA points of
sale and the activities organised by Gasol Foundation.
All of this will be backed up with recreational activities for
children and families based on the principle of educating on
how to live a healthy life:
- Advice on healthy eating habits.
- Live demonstrations.
- Healthy shopping, healthy recipes and usage tips.
- We will take part in Gasol Foundation’s workshops, camps and schools.

A better world is possible
For Grupo IFA, Corporate Social Responsibility is more than just a department: it is a belief. The company works towards doing things sustainably in its daily operations from a wide range of perspectives.
Job creation
One of the fundamental ways of helping to improve society, and in particular the growth of our country, is to create new jobs that will enable more and more people to join the job market. Overall, our Affiliates currently provide employment for over 82,000 workers.
Social commitment
Grupo IFA is one of the first companies in Spain to obtain the Solidarity Company Seal, which recognises its contribution to a fairer and more sustainable world. This recognition, added to the local solidarity projects carried out by its associates, reinforces the company's desire and firm commitment to generate a positive impact on society and the planet.
Labour commitment
Another of IFA’s priorities is the needs of its employees. As part of its efforts to achieve a balance between its workers’ professional and personal lives, Grupo IFA is working to ensure proper timetable management and shift planning for its more than 68,000 workers. The company also offers its employees continuous training to ensure it is always giving its customers the best possible service.
Environmental commitment
IFA’s commitment to small, local businesses and agreements
with suppliers in each region guarantee the quality and
freshness of our products while also helping to protect the
environment. Simplification of the supply chain leads to
significant energy savings and considerably reduces CO2
emissions. In addition, the proximity of our stores prevents
consumers from having to make long car journeys to go to their
local supermarket.
The group forms part of the
steering committee of the recycling organisation Ecoembes and
applies sustainability and environmental protection policies
throughout its various spheres. It promotes the use of new,
more sustainable materials, reduction of single-use bags and
packaging, and we have signed up to the initiative launched by
AECOC (the Spanish Association of Manufacturers and
Distributors) to reduce food waste and keep it to an absolute
minimum.
At your side yesterday, today and tomorrow
Grupo IFA. At your side yesterday, today and tomorrow is a
customer, sector and employee support campaign that reflects
the company's sincere gratitude to everyone for all their
effort, professionalism and responsibility in response to this
challenge that we are having to face as a society.
Starting with the professionals who supply us with raw
material such as farmers and manufacturers, in addition to
distribution chains and transporters, as well as our
employees, supermarket workers and end customers, the aim of
communication is to meet the objective of transmitting
closeness, safety and trust to everyone who contributes to
maintaining a semblance of normalcy possible during these
changing times.
Under the Grupo IFA claim. At your
side yesterday, today and tomorrow is a global campaign that
also addresses, among other things and always centring on
being positive, the safety measures that Grupo IFA along with
its partners has implemented to ensure the safety of customers
and employees.
