driving progress
SUSTAINABLE SOURCING
We have a responsibility to the earth and those who work with it. By pushing for greater sustainability in sourcing, we can produce ingredients that not only taste good, but do good, too.
conservation
OCEAN CONSERVATION
Partnering with Beneath the Waves, we’re safeguarding oceans with a focus on protecting vast blue carbon seagrass spaces and preserving shark populations – and we’re expanding beyond the Caribbean to take our conservation even further.
energy
POWERING UP
Renewable energy is the future. That’s why we’ve started initiatives to transition to cleaner and more efficient energy, such as exploring solar panels to power our facilities and communities.
water
REDUCING OUR WATER IMPACT
As the essence of life for all people and the planet, water is a key part of our sustainability strategy. Our goal is to replenish 50% of the water that goes into our products — but that’s not all.
biodiversity
PROTECTING POLLINATORS
Bats, bees, birds, and butterflies all play a huge role in our local ecosystem, including pollinating the fruits and sugarcane we use in our products. Learn about how we look after them.

COMMUNITY SPIRIT
