Social commitment

Monolith knows about its social responsibility. Therefore the international group of companies sponsors youth groups and clubs whose members mainly come from families with a migrant background (especially German resettlers).

In the age of Fast-Food it is very important for enterprises with a high relation to foods, to give kids and teenagers an understanding of enjoyment of exercise and sports. The expert in wholesale already realized this fact and since 2000 funds clubs like the dancing group “Grazia”, a sportsclub for Russian resettlers called BSFV Atlantik 97 or the club of Germans from Russia in Hamburg. By doing this, the Monolith Group is not only taking an active part in counteracting the lack of exercise of young people, but is supporting the integration of families with Eastern European origin also.
