Responsibility

Companies are always part of a whole. That is why we accept responsibility and act as we ourselves would expect from the point of view of our partners and customers.

Our responsibility


As a member of the community, Lactoprot undertakes to act fairly, responsibly, and with the future in mind. Environmental and climate protection is one of the issues that concern us, besides the wellbeing of our employees, good relations with customers and suppliers, consumer protection and animal welfare. We know the farmers who supply us with our milk personally, and we are aware of our responsibility to pay them an adequate milk price in the long term.

At the focus of our extensive responsibility we have our employees. Through their work they implement Lactoprot’s principles, and it is their innovative power and effort that make the company so successful. Only with their help are we in a position to meet our social responsibility at all.

We underline our responsible activity by carrying out auditing according to SMETA (Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit). This audit procedure involves an extensive catalogue of requirements based on four pillars: labour standards, environmental assessment, health & safety and business ethics.


Social Responsibility

Lactoprot not only assumes corporate responsibility. We are also socially committed. We want to give something back and enable people who do not have access to milk, a staple food that we take for granted. That is why we are involved in Butiru, a village in eastern Uganda. The food situation in this region, which is one of the poorest in the world, is extremely difficult. Essential vitamins and minerals are lacking, especially in children who are still growing. Here we start. We donate dairy cows, Friesian crossbred heifers that are pregnant, to mothers who are already organized in microfinance groups and cannot afford a cow of their own. The two firstborn calves are then passed on, thus improving access to milk with a snowball system.



It is help for self-help. We follow this project closely and are always very happy when we get news from Uganda. The pictures and stories we get confirm how important our commitment here is.
