Genuinely organic

It's true: i+m has always been eco. For us as true organic pioneers, raw materials from organic cultivation, the smallest possible consumption of resources and optimum recyclability of our products are simply part of it.

The fabulous i+m team

We work at i+m! And not only because of the mere mammon, but because it makes sense – and fun. We are a small, motivated team with many talents. And we are always receptive to questions of all kinds: about products, packaging, ingredients, orders, promotions, cooperations, i+m background information, dealer information, press releases, images, …!

Sales & Field Management | Key-Account Management
Temperamental, but with cheerful composure, she has been cracking the hardest sales nuts for i+m for years. Under positive pressure and slight chaos she is running at full speed. On top of that, she is a passionate tango dancer, eating vegetarian food out of conviction and spinning her clothes in a discarded wardrobe instead of throwing them away.
