A sustainable approach
Sustainability is an integral part of our business. Sustainable operations are crucial to securing the future of our company and for creating shared value for our consumers, shareholders and stakeholders.
We strive towards a palm oil supply chain that is responsible and sustainable, while creating livelihoods and opportunities for rural communities. To achieve this, we take a holistic approach to sustainability that is fully integrated into our business model. Our business practices are aligned with universally acceptable social and environmental standards.
Central to Wilmar’s sustainability strategy is our No Deforestation, No Peat, No Exploitation (NDPE) policy, which extends across our global operations, including our joint-venture partners and third-party suppliers.
