Social Accountability
Rene Produce has won the National Exporter of the Year award twice (2007/2014) because of many reasons, but the key reason is the people that work with us. We treat our employees as an extended family, supporting them and their whole family. Our people are important to us; they are treated with dignity & respect, which is why we have a 90% return rate every year. Rene Produce is not your ordinary working environment. In our company you are not just an employee, you are a part of a community. From principles developed and implemented by Mr. Carrillo, the organization continues to maintain a social obligation and responsibility by providing for the general welfare and personal progress of over 4,000 team members who actively contribute to our company’s success. It is this commitment to our community of workers that has enabled our organization to be recognized as the 38th ranked company in “Great Places to Work” for Mexico 2011, and have received the prestigious “Rainforest Alliance ,for the past 4 years . You see at Rene Produce Social Responsibility is not a new phenomenon it is a part of the life blood of our community focused organization.
