The Auchan store in Solymár is also joining us in our food drive!

Long-lasting help to go with a fresh lunch
Did you know? It’s estimated that about one-third of the food produced worldwide is constantly being thrown away. In Hungary alone, we throw away 400,000 metric tons of food every year, while many families don’t have enough healthy food on their tables. We are fully committed to participating in domestic food rescue efforts, thanks to the Hungarian Food Bank Association. The food saved through them will be delivered to our Eger Office as part of our food distribution mission […]
