📣 AAK is optimizing our Foodservice business by focusing on Europe. “In line with our strategy, we are optimizing our Foodservice business by focusing on Europe, where we see critical mass and growth potential. As part of this shift, we will divest the Hillside plant in NJ, US and strengthen our European presence by investing in a new facility in Sweden to replace the existing site in Dalby. Additionally, we are enhancing and modernizing our Hastings Foodservice site in the UK. These strategic investments will improve operational efficiency and position AAK for future growth in the Foodservice sector.”, says Johan Westman , President and CEO.

🌍 Today is World Mental Health Day, a reminder of the importance of prioritizing our well-being. In today’s dynamic work environment, it’s easy to focus on performance and results. But how often do we think about how our mental well-being affects our ability to thrive at work? Mental health isn’t just personal – it plays an important role in how we lead, collaborate, and grow as professionals. When we prioritize our minds, we make better decisions, build stronger relationships, and create healthier teams. At AAK, we believe that a healthy workplace is essential for growth and development. Thanks to our ongoing efforts, 70% of our employees now feel that AAK is a psychologically and emotionally healthy place to work – a 12%-age point increase over the last few years. Of course, there's always more work to be done. Every day, we continue the conversation around mental well-being, striving to make it a core part of our culture and success. On this World Mental Health Day, let's all take a moment to reflect on the importance of mental health in the workplace. Together, we can build environments where everyone feels supported, valued, and empowered to succeed 💚

At AAK, we are committed to creating an inclusive and attractive workplace, continually working to improve gender balance across our teams. In 2023, 43 percent of newly appointed leaders were women, reflecting our dedication to advancing gender equality. Vera Sandberg, Sweden’s first female engineer, chose to work at AAK at the beginning of her career in the 1920s, just a few years after graduating in 1917. She worked with AAK intermittently until 1930, contributing her skills and expertise during a time when women in engineering were rare. We believe that a diversity of backgrounds and perspectives is essential for sparking innovation. By embracing a wide range of experiences, we create a dynamic environment that encourages fresh ideas and creative problem-solving, leading to more efficient solutions and long-term success. #Diversity #Inclusion #GenderBalance

📣 AAK’s biofuel plant in Aarhus, Denmark, is nominated for the Aarhus Architecture Prize 🏭 Technical facilities are part of the green transition and must be integrated into our cities and landscapes - to fill the cityscape. The biofuel plant in Aarhus, with high architectural quality, is a good example of this. The plant building has a simple, safe, and detailed design with clear and simple geometry. It adapts well, with its red aluminum facades between the old red brick buildings and the Aarhus' industrial port. The semi-transparent facade gives a sense of the impressive process plants inside, and when lit up in the evening it appears as light and elegant despite its size. The Aarhus Architecture Prize is awarded to buildings and urban spaces of exceptionally high architectural quality. The winner will be announced later in October. #AAK #MakingBetterHappen More info (in Danish): https://lnkd.in/d54TEf2f
