SUSTAINABILTY
Our Approach
What nature has to offer is our privilege to use, and we believe that we have a responsibility to use it with great respect, in fairness to all and toward a sustainable tomorrow.
That conviction has shaped our Purpose: to create fair and sustainable value, for the benefit of current and future generations.
Over the past few decades, the food and agriculture sector has faced challenges in meeting the world’s food, fiber and fuel needs, and we recognize that transformations in global agricultural systems are necessary to continue to meet global demand without harming the planet. Recognizing sustainability as a critical value driver for the food and agriculture sector, and an integral part of GFG’s business strategy, we focus our resources on innovating and developing solutions that provide a competitive advantage to both our suppliers and customers. In doing so, we strive to ensure a sustainable and traceable product journey, from farm to fork.

Our Sustainability Priorities
In line with the outcomes of our Double Materiality Assessment (DMA), addressing the environmental and social impacts of the commodities we purchase stands at the core of how we approach sustainability, with a focus on three priorities that broadly encompass our material sustainability topics: People, Climate and Land.
