Under our pep+ sustainability strategy, we’re driven by three ambitious pillars: Positive Agriculture+ where we’re working to source our crops and ingredients in ways that restore the earth and strengthen farming communities. Including spreading regenerative agriculture practices across our agricultural footprint. Positive Value Chain+ that will transform how we make products in a way that builds a circular, inclusive economy while making a positive impact on the planet and people. Goals include achieving net‑zero emissions across our value chain, net water positive by 2030, and a sustainable packaging agenda, targets, and vision to create a world where packaging never becomes waste.
