Sustainability
At Anora we believe life is to be enjoyed, but not at the cost of our planet. That's why we want to be best in class in sustainability in our industry. We strive to constantly reduce our impact on the environment by developing our production plants and by creating more eco-friendly packaging options.
Equality and diversity are at the core of our organisational culture, and we want to ensure an inclusive and safe workplace.
Through educative programs and by developing non and low alcoholic products we promote a responsible drinking culture.
