Sustainability
Responsibly meeting today’s tastes for a more sustainable tomorrow.
We care about our role in the world and our responsibility as a global food company. That’s why we're the first global meat and poultry company to commit to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. We believe that agriculture can and must be a part of the global climate solution.
