Recently, the Del Monte Japan team held a banana learning experience event during an FC Tokyo soccer game at Japan's national stadium. More than 400 kids and parents took a brief quiz related to bananas, harvested bananas from their bunches, and created their own consumer pack with a specially designed label to take home. We love bringing enjoyment to families through healthy foods and teaching kids about fruits through activities.

We recently opened a new forest nursery in Sarapiquí, Costa Rica as part of our efforts to promote reforestation in the country. The trees grown here will later be donated to neighboring lands, with a goal of 10,000 per year. The first donations took place last month, where 115 trees were donated to the private owner Jessica Quesada, 200 to the Committee of Environment and Tourism Projection of Agua Zarcas and 5 to the Zapote school, an educational center in the area. The nursery is dedicated to the reproduction of native species whose seeds are collected in the company's wooded areas. Among the 27 species of trees that are produced in this nursery are the Bitter Cedar, Carao, Yellow Bark, Mountain Almond, Jabillo, Chinese Mamón, Loquat, among others.

We’re honored to receive our third SEAL Award, this time in the Business Sustainability category for our JUNTOS project. The JUNTOS project, which we are conducting in partnership with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, focuses on landscape restoration, water conservation, and sustainable development of communities in need while providing education about sustainable land development for areas surrounding our banana and pineapple operations in Costa Rica and Guatemala. Through the project, we’ve successfully restored more than 345 hectares of land, proposed more than 400 hectares for private wildlife refuges, set aside more than 10,000 hectares of land for biodiversity conservation, and created five alliances to educate local communities on the importance of these topics. Congratulations to our team members who have worked tirelessly on this project since its inception in 2021!

As a global leader in pineapple innovation, we’re taking #InternationalPineappleDay on Thursday seriously. We surveyed 3,000 Americans about their love for pineapples. The survey results revealed that pineapples are among America's favorite fruits thanks to the fruit's taste. However, nearly 60% of consumers either guess or do not know how to select a ripe pineapple at the store. 🍍 For more surprising pineapple stats, keep scrolling below ⬇ Learn more about our pineapple program and how to select the perfect pineapple: https://lnkd.in/gjyQwJ_N

This year’s #WorldFoodSafetyDay theme is prepare for the unexpected. At Fresh Del Monte, we take a proactive, rigorous, and disciplined approach to food safety that includes constant monitoring and management of our food safety programs and enhanced on-site assessments with our growers, co-packers, and operations. As a global grower, packer, and shipper of perishable products, food safety is imperative to our business. We were honored to win the 2023 Food Quality & Safety Award for our dedication to food safety and quality. None of this would be possible without the commitment and expertise of our entire food safety team. While we appreciate their efforts day in and day out, we’d like to publicly thank them today for all that they do to uphold our products’ quality and safety.

Congratulations to DM Hellas, our team in Greece! June not only marks 50 years in operation, but the team also achieved two major sustainability milestones.
🎉 This month, our Del Monte Hellas facility has a lot to celebrate! June not only marks 50 years in operation, but the facility has also reached significant sustainability milestones despite suffering from two major floods less than a year ago. DM Hellas reduced its scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 55% in 2023 compared 2022, and scope 3 emissions by 73% in 2023 compared to 2022. To achieve this incredible reduction in scope 1 and 2 emissions, the facility reduced its electricity consumption by installing a new ventilation system in their wastewater treatment facility and replacing all lighting with LED Smart Lighting. DM Hellas also optimized its operational processes to reduce the transportation of raw material and therefore reduce electricity and fuel consumption. To reduce scope 3 emissions, or indirect emissions, the facility generates biogas, an energy alternative to natura, from all fruit waste, residual crops, and more. The waste treatment services are typically purchased from third-party providers, classifying them as an upstream activity in the reporting company's value chain. DM Hellas has a long history of making sustainable decisions and continues to look for opportunities to reduce carbon emissions. Congratulations DM Hellas on your achievements and for 50 years of curating and processing the best Greek fruits and tomatoes. 👏 --- Αυτό το μήνα, η DM ΕΛΛΑΣ έχει πολλά να γιορτάσει! Ο Ιούνιος όχι μόνο σηματοδοτεί 50 χρόνια λειτουργίας, αλλά η εγκατάσταση έχει επίσης κατακτήσει σημαντικά ορόσημα βιωσιμότητας, παρά το γεγονός ότι υπέφερε από δύο μεγάλες πλημμύρες πριν από λιγότερο ένα χρόνο. Η DM ΕΛΛΑΣ μείωσε τις εκπομπές αερίων του θερμοκηπίου του πεδίου 1 και 2 κατά 55% το 2023 σε σύγκριση με το 2022 και τις εκπομπές του πεδίου 3 κατά 73% το 2023 σε σύγκριση με το 2022. Για να επιτευχθεί αυτή η απίστευτη μείωση των εκπομπών του πεδίου 1 και 2, η εγκατάσταση μείωσε την κατανάλωση ηλεκτρικής ενέργειας εγκαθιστώντας ένα νέο σύστημα αερισμού στην εγκατάσταση επεξεργασίας λυμάτων και αντικατέστησε όλο τον φωτισμό με LED Smart Lighting. Η DM ΕΛΛΑΣ βελτιστοποίησε επίσης τις λειτουργικές της διαδικασίες για να μειώσει τη μεταφορά της πρώτης ύλης με αποτέλεσμα να μειώσει την κατανάλωση ηλεκτρικής ενέργειας και καυσίμου. Για να μειωθούν οι εκπομπές του πεδίου 3 ή οι έμμεσες εκπομπές, η εγκατάσταση παράγει βιοαέριο, μια εναλλακτική ενέργεια, από όλα τα απόβλητα φρούτων, υπολειμματικές καλλιέργειες και άλλα. Οι υπηρεσίες επεξεργασίας αποβλήτων συνήθως προσφέρονται από τρίτους παρόχους, ταξινομώντας τις ως δραστηριότητα upstream. Η DM ΕΛΛΑΣ έχει μακρά ιστορία στη λήψη βιώσιμων πρακτικών και συνεχίζει να αναζητά ευκαιρίες για τη μείωση των εκπομπών άνθρακα. Συγχαρητήρια DM Hellas για τα επιτεύγματά σας και για τα 50 χρόνια επιμελούς επεξεργασίας των καλύτερων ελληνικών φρούτων και ντομάτας! #freshdelmonte #DelMonteHellas #sustainability #biogas #reducedemissions
