Food Manufacturing
with a Conscience Since Truitt Brothers began, we've tried to treat our employees, growers and customers right. Following that philosophy is an imperative that help guide our company and we are thrilled that consumers show increasing interest in the impact of their purchasing and consumption choices on the planet. As a certified sustainable manufacturer we are singularly focused on how our products are grown, harvested, and processed, and how we can improve our methods and practices to better serve our customers and the environment. Our Responsibility Our journey along the path to sustainability began when we invited an audit by Food Alliance, the nation's leading third-party certifier of sustainable agricultural producers and processors. Today, Food Alliance certification of our facilities puts Truitt in the company of hundreds of farmers, ranchers and processors who have made the same commitment to stewardship of the land, its resources and its citizens. Truitt Brothers is committed to: • Creating natural products considering purity and
nutritional value • Ensuring quality control and food safety • Managing water and energy resources responsibly • Managing waste responsibly, emphasizing recycling
and reuse • Providing a safe and fair work environment Continuous improvement of these sustainable practices Learn more about Food Alliance and its programs at foodalliance.org Measuring Our Impact We make it a priority to measure our impact on the environment by implementing distribution efficiencies, reducing energy use and fuel consumption.
