Our commitments to you
Sustainability is something we do more than just talk about at Maple Leaf Foods. It’s central to every aspect of our business – from the food we make, to the animals we care for, to the communities we live and work in, and the planet we must protect.
Our sustainability commitments guide all our decisions and help us build a better food industry. We have a plan.

We’re carbon neutral
We’re the first major carbon neutral food company in the world. We took this step because the planet can’t wait. Every action matters in the fight against climate change.
We care about our animals
We’ve transitioned all our sows to an innovative Advanced Open Sow Housing system. Our sows have the freedom to roam, eat, sleep, and socialize when they want.
Building belonging
We’re building a more diverse, equitable and inclusive company where every person and their experiences are valued, and their voices heard.
