DERTOUR Group has excursions and offers that could be associated with risks to animal welfare checked by independent animal welfare experts in audits based on the detailed criteria catalog of the animal welfare guideline.<\/p>\n<p>Through continuous dialogue with providers, the travel industry and animal welfare organizations, DERTOUR Group is working to make existing offers more animal-friendly, to develop innovative solutions for responsible animal experiences and to contribute to a long-term sustainable improvement in animal welfare standards in tourism.<\/p>\n            <\/div>\n        \n        \n                    <ul class=\"text-teaser__links\">\n                                                            <li>\n                            <span class=\"arrow-link\">To the guideline<\/span>\n                        <\/li>\n                                                <\/ul>\n            <\/div>\n<\/a>                <\/li>\n                    <\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-myblocks-section block-section section-bg-white\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-myblocks-row-full-2columns row-full-2columns my-row-block row-full\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-myblocks-row-full-2columns-cell row-cell row-full-2columns-cell my-cell-block\"><div class=\"myblock-wrapper block-my-text-teaser-gallery\" data-module-name=\"Teaser Contentmodul\"><div class=\"text-tasers-wrapper\">\n            <div class=\"text-taser-slider\">\n    <div class=\"text-taser-slider__slider\">\n        <ul class=\"rwgs__inner\">\n                                            <li>\n                    \n    <a href=\"https:\/\/rewe-group-nachhaltigkeitsbericht.de\/2024\/en\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"    class=\"text-teaser bg-color bg-color__light-gradient with-1-link\"  data-module-name=\".teaser-contentmodul\">\n        <div class=\"text-teaser__inner reweg-teaser-main\">\n        <h2 class=\"text-teaser__title smaller\">Strategic approach<\/h2>\n                    <div class=\"text-teaser__text entry-content\">\n                <p>In the guideline for more animal welfare, we define a binding framework for action on the subject of animal-friendly husbandry, the production of animal products and general animal welfare for REWE and PENNY in Germany. The DERTOUR Group&#8217;s animal welfare guideline contains our objectives for animal welfare in tourism.<\/p>\n<p>In 2020, we at REWE Group began to revise and realign our strategy for species-appropriate husbandry conditions in livestock farming. We are pursuing the goal of anchoring more animal welfare in our supply chains. We are guided by a four-stage process that serves to identify the main effects on animal welfare and implement suitable measures for improvement in the product supply chains.<\/p>\n            <\/div>\n        \n        \n                    <ul class=\"text-teaser__links\">\n                                                            <li>\n                            <span class=\"arrow-link\">On the management approach in our sustainability report<\/span>\n                        <\/li>\n                                                <\/ul>\n            <\/div>\n<\/a>                <\/li>\n                    <\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-myblocks-row-full-2columns-cell row-cell row-full-2columns-cell my-cell-block\"><div class=\"myblock-wrapper block-my-text-teaser-gallery\" data-module-name=\"Teaser Contentmodul\"><div class=\"text-tasers-wrapper\">\n            <div class=\"text-taser-slider\">\n    <div class=\"text-taser-slider__slider\">\n        <ul class=\"rwgs__inner\">\n                                            <li>\n                    \n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rewe-group.com\/en\/press-and-media\/publications\/guidelines\/guideline-on-animal-welfare\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"    class=\"text-teaser bg-pattern bg-pattern_pattern4 bg-pattern_red dark-bg-section with-1-link\"  data-module-name=\".teaser-contentmodul\">\n        <div class=\"text-teaser__inner reweg-teaser-main\">\n        <h2 class=\"text-teaser__title smaller\">Guideline on animal welfare<\/h2>\n        \n                    <div class=\"text-teaser__illustration illu-kuken\"><\/div>\n        \n                    <ul class=\"text-teaser__links\">\n                                                            <li>\n                            <span class=\"arrow-link\">To guideline<\/span>\n                        <\/li>\n                                                <\/ul>\n            <\/div>\n<\/a>                <\/li>\n                                            <li>\n                    \n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rewe-group.com\/en\/press-and-media\/publications\/guidelines\/guideline-on-fish-and-seafood\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"    class=\"text-teaser bg-pattern bg-pattern_pattern4 bg-pattern_red dark-bg-section with-1-link\"  data-module-name=\".teaser-contentmodul\">\n        <div class=\"text-teaser__inner reweg-teaser-main\">\n        <h2 class=\"text-teaser__title smaller\">Guideline on fish and seafood<\/h2>\n        \n                    <div class=\"text-teaser__illustration illu-fisch\"><\/div>\n        \n                    <ul class=\"text-teaser__links\">\n                                                            <li>\n                            <span class=\"arrow-link\">To guideline<\/span>\n                        <\/li>\n                                                <\/ul>\n            <\/div>\n<\/a>                <\/li>\n                    <\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-myblocks-section block-section section-bg-white\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-myblocks-row-full-2columns row-full-2columns my-row-block row-full\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-myblocks-row-full-2columns-cell row-cell row-full-2columns-cell my-cell-block\"><div class=\"myblock-wrapper block-my-text-teaser-gallery\" data-module-name=\"Teaser Contentmodul\"><div class=\"text-tasers-wrapper\">\n            <div class=\"text-taser-slider\">\n    <div class=\"text-taser-slider__slider\">\n        <ul class=\"rwgs__inner\">\n                                            <li>\n                    \n    <div\n    class=\"text-teaser bg-color bg-color__light without-link\"  data-module-name=\".teaser-contentmodul\">\n        <div class=\"text-teaser__inner reweg-teaser-main\">\n        <h2 class=\"text-teaser__title smaller\">Strategic position fish and seafood<\/h2>\n                    <div class=\"text-teaser__text entry-content\">\n                <p>Fish is an important part of our diet.
