CHANNAHON, Ill. — We are pleased to announce that earlier today Greenpeace announced their decision to suspend their campaign against IOI Corporation and re-engage with our company.
IOI warmly welcomes this decision, which follows a constructive dialogue between the senior management of the two organizations as well as demonstrable implementation progress by IOI on key elements of its Sustainable Palm Oil Policy (SPOP).
IOI has also introduced a number of additional commitments which will serve to enhance the overall implementation of its policy.

IOI will continue to engage stakeholders in its sustainability journey and looks forward to playing a leading role in ensuring sustainable global palm oil supply chains.
