Governance and structure

We draw on our strong values to establish a clear framework for constructive and transparent collaboration with our internal and external partners for Foods or Environmental Services.

Governance that secures the value we create

Governance at marbour is built on a long-term vision of shared responsibility.
It consists of the procedures, rules and structures implemented to ensure the transparency of our operations and fair relationships with our staff and partners.

Our governance is based on 3 key points


  1. Effective managerial governance with an expert, independent and diverse Board of Directors and Executive Committee that shares the same vision for implementing our strategy.


  2. Social governance that places Corporate Social Responsibility at marbour at the heart of our activities. It underpins all our initiatives and plays a key role in our development strategy.


  3. Ethical governance that aims for each of us to adopt a responsible attitude to current regulations and rules applicable to our industries, and correct behaviour in our professional relationships between colleagues, clients and suppliers.

Chacun d’entre nous s’engage à respecter les principes d’intégrité et de bonne gouvernance dans la conduite de ses activités au sein de marbour.

Board of Directors

We have opted for an open management structure with three non-executive directors, renowned for their experience in managing international groups. This choice is in keeping with our group’s main aims of development and accountability. Their presence on the Board of Directors broadens our horizons, challenges us and encourages us to be constantly open to new possibilities.
