After a comprehensive assessment of Fresh Del Monte’s Costa Rica pineapple production through shipment and sale to the North American and European markets, SCS Global Services determined that the Del Monte Zero® pineapples’ greenhouse gas emissions have been negated by the capture or sequestration of carbon dioxide from Fresh Del Monte-owned farms through Del Monte’s conservation and reforestation efforts, making those pineapples’ carbon footprint net zero. And that means a lot!
Del Monte Zero® pineapples are our first carbon neutral pineapples, certified as sustainably grown by third-party certification body SCS global services. The limited availability, carbon neutral certified Del Monte Zero® pineapple was accomplished through a long-standing program of carefully curated farms that incorporate conservation and reforestation areas to sequester CO2 in situ. Creating this nature-based solution in Del Monte-managed farms is part of a larger commitment the company has made to combating climate change.
