Vision, mission and core values

1.3.2.1

Vision

ForFarmers intends to be the leading feed company in the European market and neighbouring regions (Europe+). It achieves this by offering nutritional  and sustainable Total Feed solutions to farmers so that they can produce high-quality meat, eggs and dairy products.

Mission

ForFarmers’ mission ‘For the Future of Farming’ demonstrates its commitment to the agricultural sector. It shows that the Company has confidence in the future and that it is willing to make every effort to ensure the continuity of the farming business.

ForFarmers is convinced that it can contribute to a financially healthy agricultural sector. A sector that offers opportunities for the long term and that will play a role in society for many generations to come. ForFarmers, as the European market leader in the feed industry, does not only have the chance, but also the obligation to deliver a substantial contribution to more efficient and sustainable production of meat, eggs and dairy.

Three pillars

ForFarmers works side by side with its customers on their long-term success, and that of the agricultural sector as a whole. ForFarmers does so on the basis of three pillars:

Results: Targeted planning, monitoring and analysis of the results of the farming business.
Team: Guidance from specialist expert advisors.
Products: Use of tailored and Total Feed solutions. 

Core values

The following core values  form the essence of the company's business culture:

Ambition

ForFarmers continuously aims to improve and pursue results at an ever-higher level both on farm and within its own organisation. This requires clear leadership and a perfectly attuned team. Recruiting, developing and retaining the best people and motivating them to perform increasingly better as a team are all crucial aspects of this, as is giving trust and autonomy.

Sustainability

ForFarmers does not regard sustainability as a separate objective, but as an aspect that forms an integral and natural part of its business. Acting responsibly with regard to the use of natural sources and scarce raw materials, reducing pressure on the environment and contributing to animal welfare are all logical outcomes of this. ForFarmers accordingly helps resolve sustainability issues that go hand-in-hand with producing more food for a growing world population. In its day-to-day work, ForFarmers has a long-term vision, based on confidence and transparency. In this respect, the Company adheres to local rules and procedures and always takes its environment into account.

Partnership

The activities of ForFarmers are entirely focused on providing the best support to its customers. Co-operation forms the basis for this, with customers and suppliers as well as with strategic partners in various sectors who, like ForFarmers, want to be part of the solution. In these relationships, sustainability also comes first and foremost, because long-term relationships are essential to long-term success.
