Why we care
To us, sustainability means making sure our business practices benefit everyone and everything in our ecosystem. The commodities we work with come from the earth, are carefully grown and harvested by Growers and consumed by our Customers and Communities. We know we are all linked and act accordingly with integrity and empathy. As a profit-for-purpose company, we believe in fair transactions, compassion for our partners and industry, and respect for the environment.
Our Approach
Environment
The environment is incredibly important to our collective survival, and especially to our specific industry that relies on land and weather conditions to yield healthy crops. That’s why we are conscious of our environmental impact at every stage of the process. We are also proactive in offsetting our carbon footprint through our partnership with Offset One.
Community
Our community is one of our top priorities. We help forge long-term connections based on trust and collaboration and are invested in paying fair wages, hiring locally, and practicing counterparty-conscious trading. We aim to inspire our community to support each other and give back to society and our industry.
Giving Back
Part of being a profit-for-purpose business is partnering with a number of charities that are aligned with our values and that promote farmers’ mental health and environmental sustainability. We allocate our resources to organisations and businesses that are making a meaningful impact on the ground, and empower our employees, partners, and suppliers to make positive change in our community.
Managing Risk
With our years of experience and collective know-how, we efficiently manage the inherent risks of the Commodities and Agriculture industry by monitoring data and regularly integrating trends into our approach. We are flexible and understanding towards changes of circumstance and the challenges Growers, Suppliers and Customers may experience at different times.
