Inspired by tradtion

Inspired by the traditional Asian diet and recipes of macrobiotics that have been handed down over centuries, the founders of ARCHE sought to save this sensible, time-consuming, and valuable processing of foods into the 21st century and make it accessible across Europe.

A business’ performance depends on its employees. Neither a single entrepreneur nor a group of shareholders should receive the revenue on their own - especially not if they don’t even work for the company.

Stefan Schmidt, steward-owner ARCHE

Future oriented Entrepreneurship

In 2019 Purpose helped ARCHE to transform to steward-ownership and to ensure that the company will guard its original purpose and mission to produce and distribute healthy, valuable, and social products in the future. The stewards of ARCHE Natürkuche are able to steer the business mission and value-aligned and are able to independently take long-term strategic and business-related decisions.

At ARCHE Naturküche, every employee is part of a future-oriented, courageous and extraordinary company, in which individual performances and commitment count towards the success of the business.
