AAK has entered a partnership with Nestlé, the world’s largest food and beverage company, and palm oil corporation Musim Mas to address deforestation outside of palm oil concession areas in Aceh, Indonesia. The five-year program will positively impact some 1,000 independent smallholders. Aceh is a priority landscape as 87 percent of the Leuser Ecosystem – a protected area important for both biodiversity and carbon storage – lies within the province. “This partnership is an important part of AAK’s sustainable sourcing approach”, says Anne Mette Olesen, Chief Strategy & Sustainability
