INCLUSIVE

PROGRESS

Background

Apical2030’s “Inclusive Progress” pillar exemplifies our commitment to uplifting communities, especially those
around our mills and plantations. Recognising the intricate web of stakeholders in the palm oil value chain –
from independent farmers and smallholders to large aggregators – this pillar ensures local communities and
smallholders share the value created.
Through “Inclusive Progress", we empower communities within our sphere of influence through tailored
initiatives. These village-level programmes directly support independent smallholders, enabling them to increase
their incomes through certification and sustainable practices.
