Positive social impact
Bâtir un Futur Durable, Équitable et Inclusif
In the world of Kadalys, each producer in Martinique is much more than a supplier: they are shareholders, a symbol of our in-depth collaboration. In addition, we make it a point of honor to promote and train women in the scientific field.
Integration and partnership are at the heart of our approach. 100% of Martinique banana producers are not only suppliers, but also holders of a share in the capital of our company. Additionally, we are proud to highlight that 100% of French Antilles producers are our partners, reinforcing our commitment to transparent and mutually beneficial collaboration.
2. Support for Women's Education: A Powerful Lever to Reduce CO2 Emissions
Did you know that women's education has a direct impact on reducing CO2 emissions? An educated woman has the power to influence not only her immediate community, but also the world at large. Investing in women's education is investing in a sustainable future. Our social commitment is demonstrated by our unwavering support for women's education, an approach that embodies our vision of a more equitable and sustainable future.
The Drawdown project, which aims to identify the most effective solutions to combat climate change, highlights the essential role of women's education in this fight. Here's how it works:
- When women have access to quality education, they are better informed about environmental challenges, including climate change. This allows women to access broader economic opportunities, reducing pressure for carbon-intensive lifestyles.
- Educated women tend to have fewer children and space their births further apart, contributing to slower population growth. A smaller population emits less CO2 because it consumes fewer resources and generates less waste. By supporting women's education, we therefore directly contribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions and the fight against climate change. This is why our commitment to women's education is not limited to equal opportunities, but also extends to our responsibility towards the environment.

The positive impact of training women for careers in science is immense, so much so that it is classified6th in the top 10 solutions to combat climate change. At Kadalys, we are aware of this power and want to create change. The imbalance is obvious: when you consider that only two female scientists are mentioned in the GCSE syllabus compared to 40 men, it is clear that something needs to change. This is why we are committed to inspiring and training the next generation of female talents, preparing them for brilliant careers and, for some, to become Doctors in Biochemistry.
4. Capitalism Reinvented
Capitalism, as we know it, is often criticized for its profit-centric orientation. However, we believe in an inclusive model of capitalism, where everyone has a place and a role to play. In this sense, 100% of Martinique's banana growers are shareholders in our company. What's more, we are proud to count among our partners 100% of producers in the French West Indies (Guadeloupe, Martinique). This approach is designed to ensure that the profits generated are fairly redistributed, and that all those involved are recognized for their contribution.
