Defining an organization’s culture encourages us to reflect on its many dimensions and its crucial role in business success.
FRICON Culture is rich in complexity and history, taking its first steps with the return of our founder and his family to Vila do Conde. Brought back by the warm winds of Zimbabwe, they carried ambition and deep technical expertise. Their homecoming turned their dream business project into reality and marked the birth of a new family.
The Pillars That Define Our Culture
A distinct Top Management with a unique personality developed values, a differentiated environment, and beliefs that remain pillars and defining traits of our organization, which are evident in:
•In resilience, which never allows us to give up in the face of challenges;
•In innovation, in the pursuit of answers and new solutions;
•In flexibility, which allows us to adapt to business and social challenges;
▪ In intense work dedication, immersed in passion, and with an unwavering commitment to achieving goals;
▪ In realistic optimism, which drives us to always want more, with our feet firmly planted in the land of opportunities;
•In care for the product we deliver;
•In the excellence of the Team and its work for the Client;
•In the community we are part of and that welcomes us;
This is FRICON Culture. A vision of shared values nurtured by the Team that constitutes it. Employees are integral and fundamental parts in the co-creation of our Culture. Our success is only possible thanks to this dynamic of life within our Organization.
FRICON Team: The Soul of the Organization
What makes our Team so special? At FRICON, we are committed to continuous learning to improve every day. From the Team comes a strong organizational and social commitment that, when tested in the most challenging moments, passes with distinction and proudly raises the FRICON flag.
FRICON Culture preserves its identity because it is nurtured by everyone who is part of it, and its vitality is directly dependent on the continuous investment from the shareholders in its most human dimension.
In this context, based on the best practices already developed within and outside the Organization, the brand was redefined, and the FRICON Health and Well-Being Policy (HWP FRICON) was created.
FRICON Health and Well-Being Policy (HWP FRICON)
The HWP FRICON, with a strong sense of mission, aims to annually nurture FRICON Culture through its 4 pillars:
1) Health is a priority – we take care of the physical and mental health of our Teams and strive to promote a safe work environment.
2) Family Support – we create supportive environments for the different stages of our employees’ lives and encourage a balance between their personal and family life.
3) EcoFRICON – The promotion of our brand’s environmental policy and responsibility for social inclusion is a shared endeavor that involves us all.
4) FRICON Culture – it is a space for everyone to become even more of a Team, celebrate together, and share moments of genuine fun.
This is our FRICON Culture, a tree of stories and life:
• with roots in its heritage and a strong trunk of family values
• branches and leaves full of talent and a shared vision
• and a ground painted with many colors and moments of sharing.
FRICON Culture is more than a reflection of our history; it is the driving force that pushes us to innovate, grow, and leave our mark all over the world!
