Three works signed by the Portuguese Kruella, the Colombian Ledania and the Polish Magda were silk-screened at the Portuguese Printmaking Centre to celebrate the 230 years of Jerónimo Martins, in 2022.
“Subtle and gentle in the midst of fast food culture or more globalized food”. That is how food editor and critic Juliana Duque describes the twists and tales of Colombian cuisine.
Auctions are nothing new – even if they never lost the wow factor – and somehow they affect our daily lives on many levels: whenever we turn our lights on, query Google or stream a video, an auction is happening behind the scenes.
Feed is a corporate magazine published by Jerónimo Martins with the purpose of sharing an outlook on some of the matters that are already changing our business’s ecosystem.
Our daily bread
A staple of the human diet since time immemorial. With a place in our history, in our culture, on our tables. Whatever the recipe or method, breadmaking is regarded by many as a science, or even an art – and this is the craft to which our fresh dough factory devotes itself day in, day out.
The Apple of our Eye
Worldwide consumption of roots and greens remains low. The UN General Assembly declared 2021 as the International Year of Fruits and Vegetables to raise awareness about the role of fresh produce in human health and foster sustainable and inclusive supply chains.
Biedronka at the Heart of Change
Pleasure. Newness. Variety. This is what Poles value most about food. But 25 years ago, things were a bit different. Research commissioned by Biedronka highlights the main changes in dietary habits in Poland and their impact on the health of Polish society.
Diet to fuel Success
How much an athlete’s diet impacts its performance? Are the needs of a sportsman different from a sportswoman’s? Nutritionist for the Polish National Women’s Football Team, Sylwia Maksym answers these answers in an interview to Feed.
Winning Partnerships
Biedronka for the Common Good was the motto of its presence at the Karpacz Economic Forum, in September, highlighting its deep commitment to social and environmental engagement. Ukraine could only be a permanent backdrop and a common topic of discussion.
Agility and Engagement as Core Values
A place of help and hope. Collective action was needed to guarantee a fast and effective way to help refugees fleeing the war. Biedronka teamed with its partners to ensure that those in need were receiving proper assistance.
“Greed is the worst thing a leader can have.”
Pedro Soares dos Santos takes on the importance of leadership anchored on solid values.
Worth the Visit
Ready to be connected in a kind of blended-reality state. The idea of the metaverse is yet to be defined and the absence of a clear definition makes it difficult to know how to navigate in a virtual world that is still taking shape.
The Almanac, a window of society
“The almanac is the book that (…) draws the lines within which all of life in society is played out” (Eça de Queiroz). From 1880 to 1916, the Jerónimo Martins almanac featured the premium products at the Chiado store and the habits of the Lisbon’s elite.
Texts of Wisdom
Besides being a source of knowledge, old books are true treasures. With the support of Jerónimo Martins, rarities from the 18th century and earlier are being restored at Brotéria, the Jesuits’ cultural centre in Lisbon.
Priceless Art
Bringing fine art to a broader audience. From screen printing to engraving, lithography, photography and digital art, the Portuguese Printmaking Centre (CPS) publishes countless original artwork and produces limited editions of contemporary art.
Agility and Engagement as Core Values
A place of help and hope. Collective action was needed to guarantee a fast and effective way to help refugees fleeing the war. Biedronka teamed with its partners to ensure that those in need were receiving proper assistance.
Poland and the Migrants
The world was moved by Poland’s hospitality with Ukrainian refugees. Perhaps, for Poles, the war may be another form of Russian imperialism, but the fact is that this same war has dissipated differences and rekindled the Polish spirit of Solidarność (Solidarity).
Precious Seed
As climate crisis and worldwide conflicts place the food system at risk, seed banks safeguard biodiversity and are true guardians of national heritages. Portugal, Colombia and Poland are doing their part for the sake of future generations.
Net value
Saving the ocean, protecting the future. A human race against time, with global gains there for the taking. At Jerónimo Martins, the strategy for sustainable fishing and increasing investment in aquaculture are part of the Group’s contribution to the blue transition.
