In normal times, Fruitful Office delivers fresh fruit to our offices in London Wall and Leeds. Fruitful Office encourages organisations to promote a healthy workplace by offering fresh fruit to staff. They work with Ripple Africa, committing to planting one fruit tree in Malawi for every fruit basket that their customers consume. The trees are grown by individual Malawian householders – 10,000 families each raise 35 trees. These families benefit from the trees to provide fruit, firewood for cooking, and in some cases, to generate income. In 2019, Telereal Trillium’s purchases with Fruitful Office resulted in 2,404 fruit trees planted in Malawi and since joining Fruitful Office in 2011, our total contribution of fruit trees is 11,232. In addition to supporting some of the poorest communities in the world, Fruitful Office has embarked on a new programme in the UK to ensure that any excess fruit does not go to waste. Excess fruit, be it from over ordering, corporates under usage, and pieces of fruit not meeting Fruitful Offices stringent quality controls, is now distributed to local charities, less privileged schools and some of the UK’s zoos so others can also reap the benefit of fresh fruit. 2,404 fruit trees planted in 2019 6,609 total fruit trees planted since 2017 Fruitful Office commit to planting one fruit tree in Malawi for every fruit basket that their customers consume 140 London Wall, London EC2Y 5DN T: +44 (0)20 7796 5500 F: +44 (0)20 7796 5501 info@telerealtrillium.com View location on Google maps © Copyright 2021 Telereal Trillium Pension Plan SIP Tax Strategy Modern Slavery Act 2015 Terms of use Privacy policy Site Map Contact This website uses cookies which allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around the website when they are using it.
