Sustainable mobility

We are gradually electrifying our delivery network, with more than 100 electric vehicles already on the road. At head office, charging stations, a carpooling program, and initiatives like Défi du Mois du vélo and Vélovolt in 2025 are helping encourage more sustainable ways to get around.

Zero-waste vision

In our pharmacies, voluntary programs like GoZero, Appel à recycler, and Mira help recover and repurpose a wide range of materials. At our head office and in our distribution centre, sorting stations and other initiatives help us reduce waste, recycle more, and manage residual materials more effectively. These efforts have earned us the "ICI on recycle +" certification.

Reducing single-use plastics

In 2019, we completely phased out plastic bags in our pharmacies, replacing them with reusable, longer-lasting alternatives. We also stopped selling single-use plastic water bottles, helping keep more than 10 million bottles off the market every year.

Reducing our carbon footprint

We measure our carbon footprint annually (scopes 1, 2, and partially 3) in accordance with ISO 14064-1 guidelines to track and reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. This approach enables us to take concrete, scalable actions to minimize our environmental impact.

More sustainable spaces

Our head office focuses on concrete actions to improve building energy efficiency, enhance employee quality of life, and contribute to urban greening. These initiatives include planting trees with Nature Québec to reduce heat islands, installing automated LED lighting, and implementing a reflective roof to better regulate temperature.

Lower-impact corporate events

Our eco-friendly mindset also carries through to our corporate events, with actions such as waste reduction, more sustainable food choices, participant awareness efforts, and carbon offset initiatives during our annual convention.

Philanthropy at the heart of our priorities

For more than 30 years, we have supported the cause of sick children through Enfant Soleil, thanks to the commitment of our pharmacists, their teams, and our head office staff. We also support Le Reflet through donations of hygiene and cosmetic products, as well as Camp Canak, a respite and care centre located in New Brunswick.

Community involvement

Across the entire network, our pharmacies support their local communities through various regional initiatives. At Familiprix’s head office, our engagement policy encourages departments to give back to different organizations. Every year, dozens of activities take place, such as preparing lunches for community fridges, wrapping gifts for homeless women and putting together Christmas baskets for Moisson Québec.

A people-first employee experience

In 2022, a health and wellness committee was created at Familiprix’s headquarters to promote healthy lifestyle habits. Fresh fruit and feminine hygiene products are available free of charge on site. Employees also have access to fitness classes, telemedicine services, and a range of benefits that support their well-being and personal growth.
