The World Health Organization predicts that between 2030 and 2050, climate change could cause roughly 250,000 additional deaths per year from malnutrition, malaria, heat stress and more. As far as the economy is concerned, Bill Gates says, “The damage caused by climate change will likely be as bad as having a COVID-sized pandemic every 10 years.”
Essentially, this means that unless the world comes together to build and deploy innovations that will help eliminate greenhouse gas emissions, a climate disaster is imminent. This is the motivational force behind South-East Asian food manufacturer and distributor NR Instant Produce – a company that cares about the planet and its people.
“What really sets us apart and defines us is that we’re a purpose-led company,” NR Instant Produce CEO Dan Pathomvanich says. “From our vision and mission statement all the way down to our value chains, we really embrace sustainability.”
In fact, NR Instant Produce boasts the first and only privately owned food facility in Thailand that is carbon neutral. With its strong commitment to the United Nations Global Compact (the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative), the company places the planet at the heart of its work by implementing environmentally sustainable practices, initiatives and products that make a difference. Transforming its supply chain from a model focused on price and speed to one that’s centred on partnership, conscientious decision-making and building a better future, NR Instant Produce’s vision is to make the industry a green one, ultimately benefiting the entire world.
