French supplier of natural ingredients for the food, dietary supplement, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries, Naturex, is opening its own corporate Foundation.

Through this new independent entity, the group will support education, medicine and basics necessities in communities from which it sources botanical materials.

The Naturex Foundation has already started a partnership with AgriSud for supporting the creation of very small farming businesses in Morocco and Kelisayas Out Reach in Peru.

According to Jacques Dikansky President of the Naturex Foundation, the creation of this corporate foundation illustrates the group’s commitment regarding its social and environmental responsibilities. “Although Naturex has already been involved in several sustainable initiatives since its creation, we upgrade to an upper level,” he said.
