BUD Holland applies the three basic principles of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), investing in People, Planet and Profit, quite literally. BUD Holland helps its suppliers, many of whom are located in developing countries, to operate more sustainably and efficiently. One way in which this is achieved is through BUD Holland's close cooperation with C.O.L.E.A.C.P. (www.coleacp.org), which utilizes its PIP programmes to achieve revolutionary results and create new opportunities, especially in the so-called ACP countries.

Almost all of BUD Holland's suppliers are Global Gap certified, demanded by today's market, and by BUD Holland.

With respect to its own operations, the company aims to achieve sustainability, minimising its impact on the environment as much as possible.

Bud Holland in society

A company is the cornerstone of society. Since time immemorial, companies and society have been irrevocably linked. BUD Holland is in touch with society and is actively involved in different social groups in the neighbouring community. Several sports clubs, foundations and employers' organisations benefit from BUD Holland's social involvement.

Within the region, the company sponsors a large number of clubs, including Excelsior Maassluis, VDL, MSV '71, and ODO. BUD Holland also sponsors many one off and annual events.

Fundaçao Aquarela

This Brazilian foundation has made it its aim to create opportunities for younger and older children. Its activities focus on and around the coffee plantation owned by the foundation's initiator. But it is also active in the north of Brazil where it runs a large-scale schooling project in Bélem. BUD Holland has been a fan of this foundation for years and actively contributes to many of its projects and developments.
