Responsible Supply Chains

Food and climate security must be underpinned by responsible supply chains

Because of our position in the global food system connecting farmers to consumers, we are focused on demonstrating responsible leadership. That means we endeavor to create positive environmental and social impact, reflecting the Bunge value of doing what’s right by acting safely, ethically and sustainably. And we continue to advance sustainability outcomes in our supply chains in key regions through our commitments, commercial innovations, and strong track record of good governance.

In the course of our more than 200-year history, we have built the infrastructure to move food efficiently from where there is a surplus to where it is needed, serving farmers and customers on both ends of the value chain. And as expectations and demands for climate action and supply chain transparency grow, we collaboratively promote sustainable agriculture by engaging with farmers, NGOs and other partners to seek scalable, socially responsible solutions to common challenges facing the world today.

Our Commodities

Each year we certify or verify the sustainability of products we source, process and ship. We do this through science-based definitions and cutoff dates, aligning with credible, external processes and supporting our partners who also engage in this commitment.
