  • Adopt No Deforestation, No Peatland and No Exploitation (NDPE) Policies
  • Release Forest Footprint and Adopt Monitoring Systems
  • Prevent Violence and Uphold Human Rights
  • Hold Bad Actors to Account
  • Prove Compliance by Business Partners

✦ Nissin Foods affirmed ‘No Deforestation, No Peat, No Exploitation (NDPE)’ in its group policy but strengthening is needed to explicitly require suppliers to comply with the core elements of NDPE commitments.

✦✦ Mars, Nestle, PepsiCo and Procter & Gamble have been given a partial score due to their published cross-commodity commitments on some, but not all, elements of a NDPE policy.

✦✦✦ Mars, Nestle, PepsiCo and Unilever have been given a partial score as they have published target dates for achieving the implementation of ‘No Deforestation’ commitments in multiple commodity supply chains. They have not issued target dates for achieving independently verified implementation of all elements of a NDPE policy
