In today's world, sustainability is no longer an option, but a necessity. European companies are seeking ways to reduce their environmental footprint while simultaneously offering high-quality products. Vietnam, with its rich traditions, ecological diversity, and innovative approaches to agriculture and production, offers a range of sustainable products that perfectly align with this ambition.
Sustainable product categories
Many of the products Vietnam supplies are intrinsically sustainable because of the way they are produced:
Bamboo and wood: These materials are renewable, fast-growing, and often harvested locally and sustainably. They offer a sustainable alternative to conventional raw materials and are ideal for furniture, kitchenware, or crafts.
Coconut products and nuts: Agroforestry systems create a natural synergy between trees and crops. This protects biodiversity, improves soil quality, and supports sustainable harvesting practices.
Herbs, spices, and aromatics: Functional herbs and spices are often grown organically or with minimal chemical input, making them a healthy choice for consumers and a responsible product for European companies.
Powders and oils: Produced from carefully selected, sustainable raw materials, often with certifications such as organic or fair trade qualifications.
These products combine quality, authenticity, and environmental responsibility, making them a perfect fit for the demand of European markets for responsibly produced goods.
How Ancovo anchors sustainability
At the Antwerp Company of Yonder East, sustainability is at the heart of every aspect of our work. We view our role not only as a trading partner but as a bridge between production and the market, with a focus on ecological, social, and economic impact.
Environmentally conscious: We minimize the ecological footprint of logistics and production through efficient transportation planning, the selection of sustainable products, and collaboration with reliable partners.
Socially responsible: Our collaboration with Vietnamese producers always takes place under fair working conditions. We promote inclusion and support disadvantaged communities, thereby stimulating employment and social development.

Long-term objectives: We aim to build partnerships that anchor long-term sustainability and contribute to a climate-neutral future for Europe by 2050.
