FGV has been working closely with stakeholders and other members in the industry in developing MSPO, the first Malaysian palm oil sustainability certification scheme. MSPO is similar to the RSPO and ISCC but takes into consideration the national socio-economic agenda – focusing particularly on developing marginalised local communities – while adhering to all local, national and ratified international laws and treaties. We are also among the first few plantation companies to be MSPO certified since 2015. Heeding the Malaysian Government’s directive to make MSPO certification mandatory by the end of 2019, we are taking the necessary steps to ensure all our complexes are MSPO certified by the given deadline.
