Olam is committed to responsible growth. A global agri-business, Olam endeavours to generate economic prosperity, contribute positively to social wellbeing and manage our stewardship of the environment by providing sustainable agricultural products and food ingredients. Using the framework of the Olam Sustainability Standard our goal is to have end-to-end sustainable supply chains by 2020. Olam’s initiatives in rural communities are one aspect of this, and in 2010 The Olam Livelihood Charter (OLC) was launched as a practical and measurable framework with focus on creating economic prosperity among farming communities, improving social welfare and safeguarding the environment. Today we manage 30 OLC initiatives and another 160 beyond the programme, from rural electrification and water facilities to building health centres and schools.

• Improve the livelihoods of farmers and communities through initiatives that enhance productivity and returns
• Unlock mutual value with all our partners through collaboration
• Understand and mitigate our environmental footprint
