Sustainability
Olive Oil in the North
The Azeite a Norte project already has a very rich foundation — including olive tourism, territorial appreciation and the activation of experiences — but bringing sustainability can truly transform it into a reference.
​
Azeite a Norte embraces the pillars of sustainability developed through the Matriz Guide and its 4 pillars of sustainability:
-
Being a company - Sustainable & Socially Responsible
-
Defending & Promoting the Economic Sustainability of the Destination
-
Defending & Promoting the Cultural Sustainability of the Destination
-
Defending & Promoting the Environmental Sustainability of the Destination
