A Global Sourcing Network & Trading Expertise
Palm Oil Sourcing
Our palm oil supply chain originates from Olam Group's plantations in Gabon and is fully traceable and produced under RSPO defined terms.
We also source from third-party suppliers in Indonesia and Malaysia. We work with our suppliers to uphold our commitments under Olam Group's Sustainable Palm Oil Policy. We prioritise buying from RSPO members and 90 per cent of our palm oil is sourced from suppliers who are RSPO members. Any supplier found to be non-compliant will be investigated and corrective actions sought, and we’ll cease trading with suppliers that don’t implement corrective actions within 12 months.
Monitoring Supply Chains
As an early adopter of the World Resources Institute’s Global Forest Watch monitoring tool, GFW Pro, we’ve mapped over 1,000 mills in our supply chain.
We also use a third-party platform by Maphubs, which is designed to monitor natural resources. It provides us with monthly deforestation monitoring, risk insights, helps manage supply chain relations and enables comprehensive grievance monitoring.
Traceability & Transparency
We’re committed to working towards a traceable and transparent palm oil supply chain that supports; no deforestation of high carbon stock (HCS) or high conservation value (HCV) forests and ecosystems; no development of peatland; zero burning, and upholds responsible labour practices, respecting the rights of local communities.
Third-party Sourcing
We’re working with our third-party suppliers to ensure they uphold our commitments under Olam Group's Sustainable Palm Oil Policy. We prioritise buying from RSPO members and 90 per cent of our palm oil is sourced from suppliers who are RSPO members. Any supplier found to be non-compliant will be investigated and corrective actions sought, and we’ll cease trading with suppliers that don’t implement corrective actions within 12 months.
Sustainable Palm Oil Commitments
We’re fully supportive of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). Olam Group's palm oil from Gabon is fully traceable and produced under RSPO defined terms. We continue to work towards a traceable and transparent palm oil supply chain with our third-party suppliers to ensure they uphold our sustainable palm policies and commitments.
