Sustainability Breakdown

Promotes deforestation-free palm oil and paper, but its massive global demand for soy, beef, cocoa, and dairy continues to pressure forests.

Consistently ranked as one of the top global plastic packaging polluters. Heavy reliance on single-use plastic water bottles and flexible food film.

Aims to halve emissions by 2030 and reach net-zero by 2050. Actively investing in regenerative agriculture, but overall footprint is massive.

Agricultural sourcing practices contribute to localized chemical and fertilizer runoff, and water extraction activities draw widespread local backlash.

Systemic human rights challenges, including child labor in West African cocoa supply chains and local conflicts over spring water privatization.
