LAUBE in Zell am See is a social organisation that accompanies and supports people in emergency situations. In addition to food, it also offers counselling and assistance for those who find themselves in a difficult life situation.
Maximarkt Managing Director Thomas Schrenk emphasises that it is not only important to his company, but also to him personally, to contribute to improving the quality of life in the region.
"It is important to us that we are not only economically successful, but also assume social responsibility. By donating surplus products, we can provide concrete help and make a contribution to sustainability at the same time."
This philosophy is reflected in the close cooperation with the organisations mentioned and shows how companies can play a decisive role in supporting society.
We think this appreciative and sensible approach to food is brilliant.
