The Triple Bottom Line (3P’s)
SOPB practices responsible and good agricultural practices from its first oil palm plantation developed in the late 1960’s when it was jointly established between Commonwealth Development Cooperation (CDC) and the Sarawak State Government. These agricultural polices, good management practices and methodologies were further refined and improved incorporating sustainable agricultural practices to include social and environmental aspects.
As a leading oil palm plantation company in Sarawak and operating largely in rural areas, we have contributed and are committed to grow together with our local communities in creating jobs and alleviating poverty so as to improve lives of the present and future generations. We are working closely with like-minded business partners who are committed to sustainability as we are.
