Connecting supply and demand responsibly
We work with our suppliers and other stakeholders to build efficient and sustainable supply chains, while promoting environmentally and socially sound agricultural practices whenever we can.
Responsible commodity sourcing
Agricultural supply chains are vast and complex and it is vital that we uphold consistent sustainability principles through our supply chains. Our Supplier Code of Conduct reflects the same values and principles as our corporate Code of Conduct. It helps ensure that all suppliers uphold our standards of social and environmental responsibility, regardless of jurisdiction or geography. It is backed by commodity-specific sourcing policies.
We are committed to accelerating the transition to sustainable, responsibly produced agricultural commodities and we have a goal to each year increase the share of our certified sustainable commodity volumes.
Partnership is fundamental to meeting tomorrow’s demand for food sustainably. This means working directly with farmers to support good agricultural practices, as well as with wider stakeholder groups to tackle systemic issues.
