As a customer-oriented company, toom is particularly concerned with meeting the needs of its customers in the best possible way and supporting them with high-quality, innovative and sustainable products, services and individual advice to realise their individual home and garden projects. As part of the REWE Group, it is a matter of course for toom to convey respect for customers, employees and also the environment and thus to pursue a holistic corporate culture and strategy that focuses on people and the environment at the same time.
The Corona pandemic in particular has shown that DIY stores are indispensable and DIY projects are becoming increasingly popular. In order to meet the demands of the 21st century, toom is thus focusing not only on easy and quick-to-find solutions and products, but also on a wide online assortment and a growing range of digital services that support its customers in their DIY projects. An important part of the strategy for the company is to make customers aware of more environmentally friendly alternatives to conventional products and to meet the growing awareness of the environment and nature with the steady expansion of the more environmentally friendly PRO PLANET product range. REWE Group's navigation system for more sustainable products offers consumers a reliable orientation aid for more environmentally and socially compatible shopping at toom Baumarkt. In cooperation with an advisory board of independent experts, the PRO PLANET label is awarded in a multi-stage process only to those products at toom Baumarkt that impress with positive ecological and social characteristics over and above their quality. In order to reduce the carbon footprint of the entire product range, the company is already working on implementing more sustainable packaging solutions and offering customers more environmentally friendly alternatives, for example, selling only peat-free products in the potting soil sector from 2025 at the latest.
In addition, toom sees it as one of the central challenges of today to pursue a holistic sustainability and environmental protection strategy. It is particularly important to the company to keep these strategies transparent and to strengthen the four pillars of the strategy, which consist of the aspects green products, energy, climate and environment, employees and social commitment. For example, new stores are built under strict conditions set by the German Sustainable Building Council and run on 100% green electricity in order to support the plan to be climate-neutral by 2040 today.
An important aspect for the company is to fulfil its obligations to people and the environment in equal measure. Thus, as an employer, toom is committed to open communication between its 15,000 employees and the top management and offers comprehensive opportunities for professional development and work-life balance. For this, toom was the first DIY store to be awarded the audit berufundfamilie certificate in 2016. The company also cooperates with a large number of schools, associations, experts and NGOs such as Lebenshilfe e.V., with which toom offers a growing range of outsourced jobs and internships for people with disabilities through local partnerships.
