Alpro

We were born plant-based, way back in 1980, and we’ve been banging that big, plant-based drum ever since. Our mission is the same now as it was then. To make delicious food that’s healthy for you and healthy for the planet. We’ve come a long way since soya was the only plant-based kid on the block. From breakfast bowl to dreamy after dinner desserts, we’ve got you covered. We’ve added oats, rice, almonds, hazelnuts and coconut to our list of base ingredients. Good food starts with good ingredients. That’s why we shop local whenever we can and work closely with our farmers. Rainforest free non-GMO soya, Mediterranean almonds mostly watered by rain and naturally pollinated by insects, European oats, and the best hazelnuts, coconuts, rice and cashews we can find. Who’d have thought that Belgian born Alpro would grow into something this big, all over Europe and in 50 countries around the world. In 2017 we joined the even bigger Danone family and added our plant-based placard to their ‘Food Revolution’ march. It’s a natural fit as we both share a single aim – what’s best for people and for the planet. In for a professional challenge? Join our vibrant teams and feel the Alpro vibe of positivism and openness, collaboration and passion for quality. We believe that everyone has talent, something which comes natural to you. Your uniqueness is something which brings both excellence as well as energizes you. By joining us you will become part of one of the leading and most innovative food companies in the world, a diverse network of talents, with whom you’ll be able to share your experience and learn from theirs. We have a lot in scope for you regarding learning and development, but we can also offer interesting mobility programs, many new positions and geographies, for those who like to grow.
