5 Good Food In the production of good food, quality, taste, safety and sustainable production of the products are most important to us. We continually check our ranges and develop them further so that our products always match the current taste trends. We also attach huge importance to the best quality, sustainability, safety and traceability in the purchase of raw materials. Innovational willingness and sustainable actions belong together. We see an important opportunity to encourage sustainable thoughts and actions in the use of innovations. PAGE 5

6 Customers The requirements and expectations are our main focus. This also particularly includes the growing demand for good food. We do justice to this development with our sustainable dedication to product development and production. We consciously manage our own brands on one hand and accompany trade in the management of its own brands on the other. This double strategy gives us a high level of expertise and know-how and is the basis of our partnership with business partners. We also consequentially develop brands and services further so that they meet the contemporary demands of our business partners and the expectations of the consumers. With creativity, flexibility and new ideas, we also ensure impetus for our customers. PAGE 6

7 Partnership A long-term and fair business relationship unites us with all our partners and procurement groups. How we deal with employees, customers and all social groups is distinguished by respect and appreciation of an individual's value. We take the concerns of our partners seriously and constructively deal with them. PAGE 7

8 Employees Employees are the support pillar of our success. Systematic training, support and continual qualification through further training is therefore a central element of our strategy. The working conditions are always developed further according to the work involved and the result. We always strive to keep employees in the long-term because continuity in all areas makes a significant contribution to quality assurance and we therefore support internal solutions to meet family requirements and ensure jobs for older employees.

With the development of our own power generation based on sustainable criteria, we are contributing towards changing the energy supply to regenerative energies and increasing our independence in the long-term.
