When Biotropic was founded in 1997, it started with a simple fruit: the banana.
But there was more to it than that - a symbol of responsibility, of partnership, of the desire to make a difference.

It was clear to us early on that organic is more than just avoiding chemicals. It's about attitude.
About treating the soil, people and ideas with respect. About genuine relationships - at eye level with the people who grow our products.

That's why we have set up our own cultivation projects - places where organic farming and social responsibility go hand in hand.
A banana has become a diverse range of fresh organic fruit and vegetables, grown in a wide variety of climate zones - with the same standards: quality, fairness and sustainability.

Our projects in Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic and the Ivory Coast are part of a global network.
Everything is managed centrally from our headquarters in Germany - the heart of Biotropic.

From here, we work closely with our other locations in Italy, Spain, France and the Netherlands to make fresh organic products reliably available throughout Europe.

What drives us has remained the same: The belief that there is a piece of the future in every organic fruit - for people and nature.
That's what we call it: Organic Impact Farming.
