We take concerns about deforestation raised in Mighty Earth’s report on Olam seriously. Nestlé is an Olam customer.

The palm oil we purchase from Olam is 100% traceable, 100% responsibly sourced and 100% RSPO certified. None of it is sourced from Gabon, about which concerns have been raised, coming instead from locations in Malaysia and Indonesia.

Regardless, we remain committed to ensuring that our products are not associated with deforestation. We believe that a High Conservation Value (HCV) approach to this issue provides an important framework for guiding conservation and development decisions.

We are already discussing the findings of Mighty Earth’s report with Olam to ensure the company’s actions and commitments around the world continue to match our expectations, as set out in Nestlé’s Responsible Sourcing Guideline and Supplier Code
