Ecovadis awards Olenex with Gold Award
Olenex ranks in the top 5% of most sustainable food companies in the world.
The Ecovadis gold award is no stranger to Olenex. By sustainably producing edible oils and fats, the golden ranking has been awarded in 2017, 2019, and 2020. For a company to reach the golden status, it needs to rank in the top 5% in the Ecovadis listing.
The assessments test companies on their sustainability performance and achievements. When the final scores are published by Ecovadis, the industry can use them to verify the producer’s commitment to a responsible production regime.
“Sustainable sourcing and production which is embedded in our DNA”
“This award means a lot to us.” says Nepomuk Wahl – sustainability expert Olenex. “It is a testament to sustainable sourcing and production which is embedded in our DNA”.
