Sustainability

At Berrak, we not only offer uniquely delicious products; we also feel a deep responsibility toward nature, people, and the future. Throughout our journey of more than 42 years, we are redefining sustainability under the ReLeaf umbrella.

ReLeaf is more than an environmental vision; it is a comprehensive transformation movement that protects the soil, growers, consumers, and our planet. From the first seed planted in the soil to the final product reaching your table, we move forward with care at every step. By minimizing our environmental impact while also creating social value, we are building a greener, cleaner, and fairer production system. With ReLeaf, we place our respect for nature, people, and all living beings at the heart of our production philosophy and aim to inspire the world.

Abundance from the Soil: Stronger Tomorrows with Our Farmers

We wholeheartedly believe in the determination of the farmers who bring life to the soil. We build strong, trust-based relationships with our farmers in the Aegean and Mediterranean regions.

This partnership is more than a commercial relationship; it is a bridge of shared confidence in the future. Through guaranteed-purchase agreements, we help ensure that our farmers receive fair value for their work, while training in modern agricultural techniques and sustainable practices helps them improve productivity.

Beyond economic development, this collaboration creates a knowledge-driven legacy that can be passed from generation to generation. As our farmers grow stronger, our future becomes even more abundant.

Smart Irrigation: Value for the Soil and the Future

Water is the lifeblood of agriculture, but it is also a limited resource. That is why using water intelligently and efficiently has become one of the most important necessities of modern agriculture. By providing our farmers with smart irrigation technologies, we help save water while increasing the productivity of their land.

With our drone-assisted irrigation systems in particular, we precisely determine when each plant needs water and how much it requires. This allows us to deliver exactly the right amount of water to the soil without waste. Through this approach, we protect nature while bringing safe, high-quality products to your table.

Smart Resource Management: Respect for the Soil and the Future

Effective resource management is essential for efficient production. We carefully provide all the inputs our farmers need, from seeds to fertilizers. Our main goal is to preserve the unique value of the soil and pass this heritage on to future generations.

We work in harmony with nature throughout our production processes, taking responsibility not only for today but also for tomorrow. Every product that reaches your table is a tangible reflection of this philosophy and our deep respect for the soil.

Clean Energy with Our Solar Power Plant Project: Shaping the Future with the Sun

One of the most effective ways to secure our future is to invest in clean energy. At Zeytursan, our Solar Power Plant Project generates 3,200,000 kWh of solar energy annually, allowing us to support our production entirely with renewable resources.

In this way, we reduce carbon emissions by 1,280,000 kilograms every year and make a meaningful contribution to our planet. Our goal is clear: to shape the future through environmentally responsible production and do our part for a sustainable world.

An Equitable Approach: Agriculture Growing with Women’s Labor

Equality is a foundation of our company culture and business model. We work to eliminate discrimination by providing equal pay and equal opportunities to women and men. Beyond this, we aim to strengthen the role of women in rural economies and increase the participation of local women farmers in production.

Our aim is to highlight the value of women’s labor and demonstrate that equal representation in agriculture is essential for a sustainable future.

Access to Healthy Food: A Right for Everyone

At Zeytursan, we firmly believe that access to healthy food is a fundamental right. With this belief, we maintain the highest food safety standards and offer natural products without additives.

At the same time, by supporting small-scale raw material producers, we contribute to rural development and help improve the living standards of local growers. Our goal is clear: to make healthy and nutritious food accessible to everyone while strengthening the rural economy.

A Sustainable Future with Clean Energy

Clean energy not only protects our environment; it has also become an integral part of sustainable production. Through our Solar Power Plant Project, we generate 3,200,000 kWh of solar energy annually and significantly reduce our use of fossil fuels.

As a result, we improve our energy efficiency and move confidently toward our goal of leaving a more livable world for future generations. We aim to lead the energy transition and inspire a sustainable future.

Decent Work: A Locally Empowered Economy

We believe economic growth begins with strong local dynamics. Accordingly, by providing guaranteed purchasing to local farmers, we help strengthen their economic position and create sustainable livelihood models in agriculture.

Through our ethical supply chain, we safeguard the value of producers’ work and bring only high-quality products to your table. Our primary aim is to foster lasting, long-term economic growth that supports local development and remains committed to ethical values.

Our Green Commitments

Renewable Energy Efficiency

We are proud to have implemented the Zeytursan Solar Power Plant Project as part of our vision of generating the energy we consume and using green energy throughout our entire production process.

Zero-Carbon Production

Thanks to the solar panels installed on our factory roof, which generate 3,200,000 kWh of energy annually, we reduce carbon emissions by 1,280,000 kg per year and create an environmental benefit equivalent to 106,666 trees.

Local Farmer Support Package

In the regions where our raw materials are grown, we help provide local farmers with the seeds, fertilizers, agricultural machinery, and other resources they need. We sign seasonal agreements with our farmers and carry out production with guaranteed purchasing.

Smart Irrigation

In the regions where we produce our raw materials, we encourage farmers to adopt smart irrigation and provide seasonal support through drone-assisted smart irrigation technology. In this way, we help sustain both the productivity of the soil and the quality of the crops.
