Cargill offers Rainforest Alliance™ certified cocoa and chocolate products. The Rainforest Alliance pioneered a cocoa certification program, which is the world’s largest scale initiative to drive more sustainable cocoa farming.
The urgent need to protect nature and end deforestation was at the centre of plans to deliver on global climate targets at the UN climate conference in Glasgow in 2021.
"Cargill is committed to transforming our agricultural supply chains to be free of deforestation and land conversion by 2030" (source: https://www.cargill.com/sustainability/protecting-forests)
And in support of the United Nations World Food Programme’s response to the global hunger crisis, escalated by the collateral impact of the Ukrainian war, Cargill has made a $10 million grant to World Food Program USA.
