Daabon Group, #1 in the world in the ranking of sustainable palm oil companies

20 Nov 2023

Daabon has once again achieved the top rank globally, outperforming 100 participants with an impressive score of 95.6% according to the London Zoological Society’s SPOTT tool. This tool rigorously evaluates palm oil producers and traders, focusing on the transparency of their operations and their dedication to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices. 

In its most recent report, the SPOTT platform, an initiative of SZL (Zoological Society of London), ranked the Colombian company Grupo Daabon as the number 1 in the palm oil category after reviewing its transparency in ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) policies. SPOTT evaluated 100 palm oil producers, processors, and traders regarding their public disclosure of organizational, policy, and sustainability-related practices and environmental, social, and governance issues (ESG).

Daabon reclaimed the top spot, growing by 8.1 points since the last measurement and reaching a total score of 95.6%. Additionally, it stands out for monitoring global media coverage of the evaluated companies, thanks to its transcending-border positioning through sustainable practices that protect natural resources, the environment, and communities.

For Manuel Julián Dávila Abondano, president of Grupo Daabon, "we are honored to receive this recognition for our daily effort to show the world that in Santa Marta, Colombia, we are developing ambitious action plans. Furthermore, our purpose to share knowledge and instill optimism in small and medium local producers is encouraging them to make sustainability a cornerstone. Currently, Daabon has received more than 18 international certifications."

Grupo Daabon, present on 4 continents and a leader in the agro-industrial, agricultural, port, and logistics sectors, reaffirms its practices focused on the comprehensive care of the agricultural ecosystem. Likewise, it expresses pride in continuing to conquer international markets with organic and sustainable products harvested in Santa Marta and distributed worldwide.
