Bratigny, a subsidiary of the Omer-Decugis & Cie group specializing in the distribution of fruits and vegetables, achieved the 'Exemplary' level of the 'Sustainable Market' label on July 9, 2026, the highest distinction awarded by Afnor. This recognition validates the integration of sustainability into the governance and operational model of the French group.
Bratigny Certified at the Highest Level of Sustainability
Bratigny, a historic subsidiary of the Omer-Decugis & Cie group and distributor of local and exotic fruits and vegetables, has achieved the 'Exemplary' level of the 'Sustainable Market' label. This label was co-created by the International Market of Rungis, Afnor Certification, the food sectors, and the Federation of Wholesale Markets of France. The certification assesses the commitment of wholesale food actors across three aspects: business model governance incorporating ESG issues, respect for people and territorial impact, and environment and production. Boris Richeux, General Manager of Bratigny, stated: 'Achieving the Sustainable Market label is a great source of pride for our teams who are the primary actors in our daily commitment. This label acknowledges our efforts and serves as a motivation to further strengthen them every day.'
Sustainability Integrated into the Group's 2030 Strategy
This distinction is part of the sustainability roadmap pursued by the group for several years. Omer-Decugis & Cie organizes its actions around five major priorities within its 2030 strategy. The CSR approach is also integrated into the agenda of the Board of Directors with a dedicated CSR Committee. In 2025, the group achieved a Gold EcoVadis rating (80/100), improving by 10 points compared to 2024, and distributed more than 700 tons of fruits to partner associations in France. Serge De Backer, Director of CSR for the group, emphasized: 'We are very proud to place sustainability at the heart of our governance. Our role as a producer and distributor of fruits and vegetables gives us a major responsibility towards ecosystems.'
