The European organization for sustainable and resilient food systems’ transformation has welcomed the Italian Aboca, specialised in natural and biodegradable products for human health, in order to start a collaboration to improve human and environmental health.

EAT Europe is pleased to welcome the Italian company Aboca as a new member of its organisation, marking the beginning of a collaboration grounded in a shared vision: improving human and environmental health is a daily commitment and a collective responsibility. Eat Europe is a European multistakeholder organization that aims at stimulating thinking and tabling concrete solutions and proposals to EU decision-makers in order to drive a sustainable and resilient food systems’ transformation, through an innovative and solid alliance among all its actors: farmers, industry, retailers, academia and consumers. Aboca is a Benefit Corporation committed with  generating a positive impact on the community and the environment, operating responsibly, sustainably and transparently, as formally set out in its statute.

“This new partnership highlights the importance of a supply-chain approach to citizens’ well-being, recognizing that access to healthy, natural, and high value-added products depends on strong collaboration across all stages of production” commented Luigi Scordamaglia, President of Eat Europe.

By working together, EAT Europe and ABOCA aim to promote food systems that place people’s health, environmental protection, and product quality at their core. The collaboration also underscores the central role of science as a driver of innovation and credibility. Scientific research is essential to developing solutions that are both effective and sustainable, supporting informed consumer choices and long-term public health.

Massimo Mercati Aboca CEO stated: “Aboca represents a concrete example of how scientific and technological innovation can contribute to One Health and economic growth in a successful way, combining with social equity, respect for the environment and common good.  Through an integrated model of production, from agriculture to final products we demonstrate that it is possible to guarantee unique therapeutical proposal and economical marginality, assuring the protection of natural resources and the well-being of communities”.

By joining forces, EAT Europe and Aboca reaffirm their shared commitment to building food and health systems that are more sustainable, science-based, and oriented toward the common good.
