Kraft Heinz Releases Global Deforestation- and Conversion-Free Policy

Pittsburgh, Chicago, Friday, June 23rd, 2023

At Kraft Heinz, our Values compel us to be a global corporate citizen, to give back to our communities and to lend our expertise and resources to help address important environmental and societal challenges. One of our Company Values is We do the right thing, and everything we do grows from there—from our pledge of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, to providing 1.5 billion meals to people in need around the world by 2025, to our aim of making 100% recyclable, reusable or compostable packaging by 2025.

We are committed to working within our own operations and with our suppliers and business partners to achieve long-term transformation through initiatives aimed at positive climate, biodiversity and water outcomes.

Today we announce Kraft Heinz’s Deforestation- and Conversion-Free Policy that details our commitment to respecting forests and nature, and to eliminating deforestation and natural ecosystem conversion from our supply chain. Developed with guidance from the Accountability Framework initiative guidance and the Science Based Target Initiative’s Forest, Land and Agriculture Guidance, the Policy includes long-term protection and remediation where necessary for priority raw materials including palm oil, sugar, beef, dairy, cocoa, coffee, pulp, paper and packaging.
