LAVLI: A Social Enterprise for Sustainable Food Supply
editLAVLI is a social enterprise committed to a socio-ecological transformation of the food system. Our goal is to establish a fair, solidarity-based, and innovative food supply that is sustainable and independent in both urban and rural areas.
Key Products and Services
editLAVLI offers a modular social franchise system that enables communities to build a regional and sustainable food trade. Our services include the sale of healthy, fresh, and seasonally produced food, both online and in local stores. We support regional producers through fair prices, appreciation, and security to promote sustainable food production within planetary boundaries.
Mission and Values
editOur mission is to improve the food system for the benefit of people, animals, and nature. As a social enterprise, we do not prioritize profit maximization but rather the solution of social problems. We believe that everyone can contribute to preserving the wealth of our landscape and nature for ourselves and future generations. Our values are based on solidarity, innovation, and the conscious enjoyment of food that is fairly produced and suitable for future generations.
Sustainability Goals and Initiatives
editLAVLI is committed to a variety of sustainability goals:
- Climate Protection and Fresh Products: By reducing supply distances, we lower CO2 emissions and ensure fresh products.
- Less Food Waste and Spoilage: We work to minimize food waste and ensure efficient supply.
- Jobs and Economic Stability: We promote job creation and economic stability in the region.
- Preservation of Cultural Landscapes and More Biodiversity: By supporting regional agriculture, we contribute to the preservation of cultural landscapes and the promotion of biodiversity.
- Independence and Availability of Food: We strive to secure the independence and availability of food in the regions.
Responsible Ownership and Corporate Structure
editLAVLI Food was founded under responsible ownership, allowing us to prioritize long-term, sustainable decisions over short-term profit maximization. Profits and assets are not withdrawn for individual purposes but serve the corporate purpose and development of the company. Decisions are made by active entrepreneurs who feel internally connected to the company, rather than by distant investors.
LAVLI works closely with communities, municipalities, and public agencies to establish a regional food supply in the interest of the common good. Through our initiatives and values, we contribute to a positive change in the food system and secure a sustainable future for people and the environment.
