"I am proud of our team for leading by example—large-scale farmers like us need to start showing scalable transformations,” said Hans Sauter, Chief Sustainability Officer, Senior Vice President, R&D and Agricultural Services at Fresh Del Monte, in a statement. “Addressing a warming climate is no longer optional, but an urgent task. Fresh Del Monte remains dedicated to its mission of taking proactive action and working towards a Brighter World Tomorrow®. Sustainability only continues to gain traction throughout our company, and I am thrilled to see both our progress and the work that lies ahead of us.”

Fresh Del Monte achieved a 28% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions, surpassing its SBTi target by 2023. The company set goals to lower Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 27.5% using a 2019 baseline and Scope 3 emissions by 12.3% based on a 2020 baseline by 2030.
