A sustainably healthy world is the Mibelle Group’s highest aim

Our approach

The Mibelle Group belongs to the most sustainable retailer in the world. Even during his lifetime, Gottlieb Duttweiler, Migros’ founder and a bona fide pioneer, called on people to use resources sparingly so the next generation would have a world worth living in. That’s why we’re committed to optimising all environmental protection measures as part of a continuous improvement process in order to reduce our impact on the environment.

Responsible production, research and management has characterised the Mibelle Group from the outset. We have thus ascribed to a comprehensive vision of sustainability and a corresponding commitment.

We not only help our customers to obtain full services optimally tailored to their requirements – sustainability is part of the conviction at our company and offers our customers an expedient added value.

Our targets

In line with the Paris Climate Agreement, we are committed to limiting global warming to 1.5°C. That is why we joined the internationally recognized Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) in 2019 and have set ourselves science-based climate targets based on our greenhouse gas balances. These were officially validated by SBTi in 2022. Our goal: By 2050 at the latest, the Migros Group aims to emit no more greenhouse gases with its net zero strategy. Further pioneering ambitions will guide us in stages until 2040.

From 2040, we will only process sustainable raw materials.

From 2040, we will only work with renewable energies.

From 2040, we will only work with closed ecological cycles.

Net zero: By 2050 at the latest, we will no longer emit any greenhouse gases.
