Who we are

SPOC’s participants unite a group of companies and organisations who are convinced that palm oil can play a positive role in society when produced sustainably. We are committed to either use, produce or support the production and consumption of sustainable palm oil and inspire others to do the same.

By uniting our forces we want to invest in increasing and strengthening the positive impacts of palm production and reduce and eliminate the negative aspects associated with palm oil production and as such build sustainable palm oil value chains.  For an overview of SPOC participants and their individual stories about sustainable palm oil click the button below.

SPOC is co-financed by Solidaridad and Sime Darby, Wilmar, Ferrero, Cargill, Bunge and Fedepalma. These organisations are also members of the SPOC Steering Board.

SPOC activities and programming are governed by the SPOC Advisory Board. Members are Conservation InternationalWWF, Solidaridad, Sime Darby, Cargill, Wilmar and Ferrero.

The SPOC secretariat is managed by Marieke Leegwater and Michel Riemersma from Solidaridad.
