Organic retailer saves 10,000 euros on energy costs a year

The concept of sustainability is at the heart of Biohandel GmbH run by the Pichler family. Only organic fruit and vegetables are supplied from Hörsching to food retailers, healthcare facilities and businesses. The cooling of the foods requires a huge amount of energy – 40% of which has been generated by the company itself since July 2018. The business also takes a sustainable approach to transport; there are three electric company cars on site, which are charged with the self-generated PV energy.
