This approach, which is natural for Sidetrade, enables us to go further and faster in taking into account our social and environmental responsibilities.
“We’re only at the beginning of the road. For the coming year, two words will sum up our commitments: humility and ambition.

Ambition, because we have chosen to be responsible and to act today without waiting for tomorrow. Armed with this vision, Sidetrade looks forward to 2023 with confidence and enthusiasm.”
