Our Ongoing Commitment to Sustainability
An overview of our current progress toward 2030 goals
At Fresh Del Monte, our sustainability efforts are rooted in every fiber of our business—from our farming operations to our vertically-integrated supply chain to the communities we support. Our efforts in 2023 reflect our ongoing commitment to sustainability.
In 2023, we achieved a 28 percent reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions, surpassing our SBTi target well ahead of the 2030 goal timeline. We also diverted 91 percent of our food waste from landfill and reduced our food waste by 42 percent. These are just a few of the achievements highlighted in our 2023 Sustainability report. It’s our hope that we continue to improve and inspire others to join us as we work towards building a Brighter World Tomorrow®.
