Kapi Kapi Growers, a division of Grupo Acon and grower-shipper of sustainably grown pineapples, bananas and plantains, has published its first sustainability report. The document outlines clear objectives and metrics designed to enhance the company’s commitment to environmental, social and governance (ESG) priorities within the communities and environments where it operates.

The 2025–2030 ESG strategy is based on stakeholder input and diagnostic analysis. Using Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) metrics, Kapi Kapi aims to measure and reduce its impact on water consumption and greenhouse gas emissions while prioritizing employee training and compliance.

Key milestones highlighted include:

  • Environmental Impact: Implementation of a renewable energy project and advanced water conservation technology.
  • Social Impact: Partnerships with local schools, company-wide health initiatives and women’s empowerment workshops.
  • Governance: Achievement of 100% social compliance across its suppliers and workforce.

“This approach allows us to communicate the ongoing management of our sustainability objectives,” says Sofia Acon, president of Kapi Kapi Growers. “We believe this provides a solid foundation to enhance our efforts and better support our communities, workforce and organization.”
