Palm Oil Sourcing Policy
Download our policyWe deliver palm oil that is produced in accordance with “No Deforestation, No Peat and No Exploitation” (NDPE) practices:
Each year we certify or verify the sustainability of greater volumes of our palm. In 2023, 94% of our palm oil volumes were sourced from suppliers with robust NDPE commitments, meaning a commitment to no deforestation, no peatland development, and no exploitation of any kind. These are our palm certification standards.
You can find our certificates on our certifications page.
We are committed to building a sustainable supply chain and we report our progress in quarterly updates on this online dashboard. Use the toggle at the top of this dashboard to present palm or palm kernel information. Verification statement from Control Union 2023 (NDPE IRF)
Our 2023 Full Year palm oil dashboard can be found here.
Our traceability numbers are third party verified annually:
