Responsible Purchasing Policy
Last revision adopted on August 13, 2024 by Board of Directors
SIPEF’s Responsible Purchasing Policy (RPuP) was first published in November 2020. The Policy guides the Group’s responsible sourcing requirements for engaging with third-party fresh fruit bunch (FBB) suppliers (restricted to smallholders), and sets out criteria for working with them towards certification. It also provides the framework for the selection, monitoring, and management of non-compliances of third-party suppliers in the Group’s supply base.
All smallholders must comply with SIPEF’s RPuP, along with other relevant SIPEF policies, including the Responsible Plantations Policy (RPP), which encompasses the main principles the Group upholds.
