The Ferrero Foundation

THE FERRERO FOUNDATION

The Ferrero Foundation is devoted to supporting Ferrero retirees through social and cultural programmes in which we operate.

COMMITMENT TO LOCAL COMMUNITIES
Supporting our workforce beyond the workplace

The Ferrero Foundation, established in 1983, embodies our motto of  'Work, Create, Donate' to oversee a variety of activities geared towards employees beyond their employment and the local communities around our three main production sites.

The Foundation offers Ferrero seniors and retirees based in Alba (Italy), Villers-Écalles (France) and Stadtallendorf (Germany) a programme of creative, recreational and social activities, as well as social and healthcare services. It also provides national and international study scholarships to the children of Ferrero's current and former employees, along with sponsoring scientific research and research doctorates, playing our part in investing in tomorrow’s future today.
