Our 2026 Performance at a Glance

Behind this progress lies a year of structured and focused work. We strengthened our policies, introduced new procedures, enhanced our operational practices and further developed the way we monitor our environmental, social and governance performance.

Each action contributes to a more responsible, transparent and resilient way of doing business.

“This recognition reflects our belief that responsible growth must be supported by consistent action across every part of our organization. The progress achieved this year belongs to our people, whose collaboration and commitment continue to move medbest forward.”

Konstantinos Marianos, Founder & CEO, medbest Tweet

A shared achievement

Sustainability cannot be advanced by one person or one department alone. It requires shared responsibility, close cooperation and the support of the entire organization.

This recognition reflects the contribution of colleagues and teams across departments and lines of business, supported by the continued commitment and direction of Senior Management.

It is a collective achievement that belongs to everyone at medbest.

“The EcoVadis assessment gives us a valuable opportunity to measure our progress, identify areas for improvement and transform our commitments into structured, measurable action. This year’s result reflects the dedication of colleagues across medbest and encourages us to continue raising our standards.”

Quality Assurance Director, Quality Officer & IFS Representative, medbest Tweet

Guided by our core values of integrity, responsibility, and transparency, we continuously work to reduce our ecological footprint, support communities, and uphold ethical business practices.

Our Threefold Approach to Sustainability

Reducing Our Ecological Footprint – We are committed to minimizing our environmental impact through sustainable practices and strategic partnerships:

Sourcing Responsibly: We procure most of our ingredients from local farmers who follow responsible farming methods.

Reducing Emissions: Since 2023, we have achieved zero Scope 2 GHG emissions by sourcing renewable electricity through Guarantees of Origin, with annual verification via ISO 14064.

Recycling Initiatives: Our strategic partners actively collaborate with recycling companies to ensure responsible disposal of carton, plastic, glass, and tins.

Social Responsibility: Giving Back to Our Community – Sustainability is about people as much as it is about the planet. Medbest actively supports communities through meaningful initiatives:

SOS Children’s Villages: Since 2021, we provide targeted assistance to meet the organization’s evolving needs.

Race for the Cure: Our team participates annually in Greece’s largest social sports event, advocating for breast cancer awareness and survivor support.

Fighting Food Waste: Through our partnership with Boroume (“We Can”), we donate food to soup kitchens and other organizations supporting those in need.

Employee Well-Being: Initiatives like Brunch Fridays foster a happy, healthy workplace culture.

Ethical Governance: Integrity at Our Core – Transparent and ethical business practices are the foundation of Medbest. We uphold the highest standards of honesty, accountability, and food safety to ensure our processes meet global regulatory requirements. Key policies include:

Code of Conduct, Human Rights & Ethics Policies, Anti-Bribery & Corruption Measures, Whistleblowing & Harassment Prevention Policies, including reporting a misconduct safely and securely.

By integrating sustainability into every aspect of our operations, Medbest is dedicated to making a lasting impact—on our industry, our communities, and our planet.
