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.

Explore why and how we are committed to:

The Environment

We became the world’s first major carbon neutral food company in 2019 and have since upheld our commitment to environmental sustainability across our organization. We also have set ambitious science-based targets to reduce our environmental footprint.

Animal Care

We aim to be a global leader in animal care, and we believe that we have a real responsibility to care for our animals and their well-being. As such, we adhere to high standards of animal care including providing an Advanced Open Sow Housing system so animals can roam freely, treating our pigs and chicken humanely, raising Raised Without Antibiotics pork and chicken, and working hard to keep our animals healthy and safe from diseases.

Good Food

We attach great importance to producing good food for Canadians and we aim to be leaders in the authentic artisan creation of our products. We take pride in our transparent food labels to help Canadians make informed and choices, and we’re constantly innovating to bring delicious food to your family—that’s what making good food means to us!

Building belonging

We’re building a more diverse, equitable and inclusive company where every person and their experiences are valued, and their voices heard.

We care about our animals

We’ve transitioned 93% of our sows to an innovative Advanced Open Sow Housing system. Our sows have the freedom to roam, eat, sleep, and socialize when they want.
