Deep dive: KoRo's supply chain
It is very important to us here at KoRo to shorten supply chains where possible and to be transparent about them, in order to enable consumers to make informed decisions. But what exactly we mean by short supply chains sometimes raises questions. This is why we want to explain how we approach the topic of supply chains, what we have already implemented, and where there is still room for improvement. As a comparatively young company on the market, we are still far from perfect and are on a journey towards more direct trade routes and more transparent supply chains. In this article, we would like to give you an insight into the challenges we face on this journey, why transparency in supply chains is important, and how we are approaching this topic.

Under the (nutritional) microscope: Detox

How is salt actually produced?

Broken goods: What are they actually?
Chocolate, stone and cashew break, but our love of snacks doesn't! Bags full of supposedly defective nuts and chocolate are bestsellers in our house. But why are they cheaper than whole nuts or intact chocolate bars and what is actually behind the term "broken" or "B-goods"?
