"We know how important it is to use the very best ingredients sourced in a sustainable and responsible way."
We partner with farmers who share our vision. Together we source, grow, harvest, bake and bring you the snacks you love, while helping protect our planet. Some of our ingredients travel the world before they reach us. So, it’s essential that we know where they originated and the conditions in which they were grown and transported.
Local sourcing
Wherever we can we source the best ingredients locally. This helps us support local farmers and limits carbon emissions caused by transportation. We’ve built partnerships with local wheat farmers to give us access to consistent, high-quality flour that makes our biscuits unique.
Traceability
Where we can’t source locally, we aim for 100% traceability. It’s important for us to know where these ingredients come from and the conditions in which they’re grown and harvested. For pladis this is most important for palm oil and cocoa beans.

Packaging
With our partners we’re committed to making 100% of our plastic packaging reusable, recyclable or compostable. We’re reducing packaging through smarter design and the adoption of more sustainable materials to increase the percentage of recycled content. We also label packaging to facilitate recyclability.
Carbon emissions
We’re actively reducing our direct CO2 emissions and engaging with key suppliers on reducing their emissions. We’re reducing energy consumption, water usage and waste in our factories. We’re also purchasing 100% of renewable electricity in markets where it’s widely available.
