Absztrakt (kivonat)

Creating value from what others intended to throw away is not an easy task, but Pinczés Marianna and the company group she built succeeded. Over the years, Marianna has developed a product brand, the so-called Grapoila brand, whose raw material is provided by materials destined for disposal in other industries. In addition, the manufacturing of Grapoila products, as said by the owner, happens in spirit of zero-waste production in order not to harm and burden the environment. This work includes a secondary research about the notion of sustainability and its 3 pillars, furthermore, the concept of zero waste manufacturing is discussed within which linear vs. circular economies and product life cycle with environmental impacts are touched upon. Besides that, a case study is introduced as a primary research about Corn Oil Press Llc. and its related companies. With the help of an in-depth interview with the owner, Marianna, a detailed investigation is delivered in order to emphasise how these companies can process grape marc and what they actually do with the generated by-products. The most important steps, improvements and developments of the firm towards sustainability are presented including the limitations they need to face.Pinczés Marianna claims that environmentally friendly thinking is a matter of decisions which pays off in the long run in form of cost reduction. In the thesis, one can find the answer why Marianna said that: the procurement, manufacturing and distribution are examined at Corn Oil Press to see the improvements and efforts they took to diminish their ecological footprint. In fact, is zero-waste production being implemented as the business owner claims or not?
