Intercoop House & Garden joined the amfori Business Compliance Initiative (amfori BSCI) in 2017, which was the beginning of Intercoop’s sustainability activities. amfori is an association of over 2,000 mostly European members, all of whom are committed to greater sustainability along the supply chains. This is achieved through social (BSCI) and environmental (Business Environmental Performance Initiative, BEPI) standards. In the meantime, well over 90% of Intercoop suppliers have a valid amfori BSCI audit.
Intercoop has tackled the challenge to reduce its impact on the climate. By implementing effective measures to reduce our emissions (Scope 1, 2 & parts of 3 GHG) we have achieved a reduction of a third of our emissions compared to 2019. For the remaining emissions we have supported high-quality climate protection projects which reduce climate gas emissions significantly.
The analysis has been performed by Carbotech AG (carbotech.ch), an established consulting firm for sustainability, founded in 1989 in Basel.

Our values:
Pragmatism: This goes back to the agricultural roots of the cooperative and constitutes the benchmark.
Reliability: This is based on the basic values of “trust” and “assurance” and is intended to encourage employees, members and suppliers to act in a qualitative, socially responsible and sustainable manner.
Professionalism: The complexity of the business calls for a high degree of professional competence to implement the above values.
