Unilever

In 2020, global retail giant Unilever unveiled a deforestation-free supply chain promise. By 2023 they would be deforestation free. This has been and gone and they are still causing deforestation.

This brand has a litany of broken promises around deforestation. Unilever is been responsible for 55,000ha of deforestation in their palm oil supply chain since 2016. (Source: Chain Reaction Research).

Unilever makes claims of sustainability including a ‘promise’ to have a deforestation-free supply chain by 2023. Promises mean nothing – action is what matters.
Unilever has a high ranking on the WWF Scorecard and an RSPO certification. However Unilever is purchasing huge amounts of palm oil from five mills that are responsible for deforestation: Musirawas, Mulia Sawit, Tunas Baru Lampung, Indonusa and Peputra Group.
