4th February is World Cancer Day
We often forget that 1/3 of the deaths from cancer (almost 10 million in 2018) are due to the 5 leading behavioral and dietary risks, among which are the low fruit and vegetable intake and the high body mass index.
Frrrutiz was born with the purpose of contributing to public health, and in particular to the fight against cancer, by providing healthy plant and fruit-based alternatives. Indeed, by proposing 100% natural products, by drying at a low temperature preserving nutritional properties of fruits and vegetables, and by refusing to add any sugars or additives, Frrrutiz aims at providing healthy and fun ways to increase the intake of fruits and vegetables.
And as each small step counts, Frrrutiz donates 1% of its sales to the fight against cancer.
All together we can succeed!
JUNE 5: WORLD SUSTAINABILITY DAY
Since 1973, 5 June is celebrated on world sustainability day, created by the United Nations. To give even more emphasis to this event, the European Union created the week of sustainable development from 30 May to 5 June (deferred to sept/oct because of COVID-19).
It is a good time for us to reflect on our activity, our way of life and the impact we have on the planet. In 2015, 193 countries adopted the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, divided into 17 chapters, ranging from education to gender equality or reducing the sameness in the world.
The instrument associated with this desire for sustainability for companies is called the global compact UN, which details how companies can contribute to each of the above objectives. More than 12000 companies worldwide have already committed to contributing to these objectives and are part of the program.
At Frrrutiz, we are very committed to sustainability, with the 2030 sustainable development goals and we do our best to actively contribute.This week we will reflect on how we can contribute to improving our world!
Among the many challenges that the Covid-19 crisis is raising, the issue of food safety and food security of supply is a crucial one. In order to keep a strong and healthy immune system, we absolutely need to continue eating fruits and vegetables. However, these are perishable by nature and supply depends on availability of the supply chain.
These could be at risk in a long term crisis. Moreover, food storage in large urban areas is complicated by space limitation. In this situation, low-temperature dehydrated fruits, vegetables and variations with superfood, savory, suitable for most diets, rich in nutrients, that last months/years and take no space to stock appear as a suitable solution to the challenge.
Last Friday, Frrrutiz submitted an application for a project in the framework of EIC Accelerator in this regard. The subject of the call was solutions and innovations in the framework of Covid-19 crisis. We enclose a key slide of our PItch Deck. In Frrrutiz we believe our products can be part of the solution to this unprecedented crisis we are facing.
