Report | Responsible Business Practices in the Indian Palm Oil Sector

This 2014 report, prepared by Centre for Responsible Business with the support of ISEAL, analyses the landscape for the import and use of sustainable palm oil in India, looking at major drivers for and gaps in domestic demand. The report explores the reasons behind the low uptake of sustainable palm oil in India, the world's largest importer and consumer of the edible oil. It makes recommendations for Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials, Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil and ISEAL on strategies they can use, as well as potential solutions, for supporting Indian companies to take greater sustainability leadership in the palm oil sector.
