We strive to minimize our environmental footprint through sustainable practices and extensive technology investments. Our efforts include the complete digitalization of all business processes, ranging from electronic administration to online brochures and booking applications. We are actively recycling paper, batteries, and electronic devices, and have installed solar panel systems, that generate all the electricity needed for our head office, alongside other innovative electricity and water-saving technologies. Our dedication to energy efficiency was recognized in 2023 when all companies of the K. Badouvas Group individually achieved the ISO50001 certification, reflecting our commitment to energy-saving practices.

We organize and operate daily excursions, that contribute to the economic development and growth of the local people and small businesses, and consciously choose local providers for all our transportation services.

Our offerings include a wide range of authentic “Local Experiences” such as cooking lessons, wine tasting, village explorations, visits at olive oil factories and pottery workshops. We sincerely believe that sustainable economic growth can only be achieved through fair wages and fair trade practices. We therefore ensure that employees receive living wages and that we pay fair prices to our suppliers, benefiting both their families and the local community. We are continuously exploring new ways to support the local community by reinvesting part of our profits into local projects and environmental initiatives. Additionally, we require our suppliers to uphold similar standards, fostering a cycle of mutual benefit and support.

Through these actions, we reaffirm our dedication to fostering a more sustainable, equitable, and thriving future for our communities and beyond.

For many years, we have been actively involved in social and environmental initiatives, both independently and in collaboration with local institutions. Our efforts include voluntary blood donations, beach and park cleanups, a rescue campaign for supercentenarian olive trees, and fundraising for good causes. We also contribute to a range of sociocultural projects and events within our communities and provide financial support and recognition to brilliant students and athletes in the Heraklion area , encouraging them to excel and reach their full potential.

Since 2015, we have adopted a 2.500 sq meters municipal park area in Heraklion, in memory of our beloved Zacharias K. Badouvas. In the summer of 2022, part of it has been redesigned to a Calisthenics Park, providing unique outdoor gym facilities for the sport enthusiasts of our city.

Additionally, we proudly dispose our own blood bank at the Venizeleio Hospital in Heraklion, ensuring that our employees and their families across Greece have access to a safe blood supply when needed.

In recent years, the Badouvas family also founded the "Cretan Palliative Care" association, honoring Zacharias K. Badouvas by providing comfort and support to patients in need of palliative care.
