Traceability to Plantation (TTP)
To meet our TTP objectives, we initiated the
Traceability Outreach Programme (TOP) targeting
our suppliers across Riau, Jambi, North Sumatra,
Aceh, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Bangka Belitung.
Recognising the dynamic and complex nature of our
supply chain, we actively work with our suppliers to
implement our TTP protocol. For our new suppliers,
this involves an intensive collaboration to enhance
their understanding of TTP. Moreover, we focus
on assisting the handful of suppliers who are
progressing in their TTP by developing specific
action plans to guide them towards this goal.

Further insights into this endeavour can be found on pages 60-67. We aim for continuous improvement in our
traceability efforts annually.
