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.

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.
