Vestaron is pleased to announce that we have joined the United Nations Global Compact initiative — a voluntary leadership platform for the development, implementation, and disclosure of responsible business practices.  With this announcement, Vestaron is proud to join thousands of other companies globally committed to taking responsible business action to create the world we all want.

The UN Global Compact is a call to companies everywhere to align their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption, and to take action in support of UN goals and issues embodied in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

“At Vestaron we like to say that Sustainability is part of our DNA. We are committed to helping growers solve their biggest challenges with sustainable products,” said Sarah Fox, VP of Sustainability for Vestaron. “Formally joining the UN Global Compact and committing to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) gives us a chance to demonstrate our efforts towards sustainable agriculture while also challenging Vestaron towards continuous improvement as we grow in products, geography and people.”

Launched in 2000, the UN Global Compact is the largest corporate sustainability initiative in the world, with more than 15,000 companies and 3,800 non-business signatories based in over 160 countries, and more than 69 Local Networks.
