Nestlé: 77% of its agricultural commodities ‘deforestation-free’

Following their 2010 ’no deforestation’ commitment, Nestlé has announced that 77% of its agricultural commodities are confirmed as being deforestation-free.
Nestlé has cited that the use of its satellite imagery system, Starling, has been highly beneficial in the monitoring and managing of its entire palm oil supply chain.
The company has noted that transparency is crucial to building effective, sustainable supply chains Nestlé has gone further in this respect by publishing a Transparency Dashboard to use information provided through Starling.
Nestlé has also worked alongside partners such as Airbus and Earthworm Foundation to reach this achievement, and has called for ‘urgent collaboration’ between other consumer goods companies to work towards a more sustainable future for the industry, Foodbev reports.
