Purpose & Vision

Providing Smart Choices for Everyday Healthcare

We are a healthcare company guided by a shared purpose of helping people stay in good health. Good health means more than just avoiding severe illness or hospitalisation. It also means the health-related problems people face in their daily lives are addressed, treated and prevented.

We want to give people control over their daily healthcare. By empowering them to make smarter choices, we believe that we can increase their quality of life and help them live their lives to the fullest. We call these smart choices for everyday healthcare. We are driven by high ambitions to become a leading force in everyday healthcare.

We Support Operation Smile

Every three minutes, a child with a cleft lip or palate is born. These children often live a tough life, having to endure harassment and isolation.

Operation Smile performs about 15,000 surgeries a year, improving the lives of just as many children all over the world. For us this is a smart choice for everyday healthcare and why Karo has supported Operation Smile since 2018.

You can read more about our partnership and combined efforts in our latest Sustainability Report.
