05.06.2018 (The Edge Markets MY) - SANDAKAN (June 5): Wilmar International Ltd (Wilmar) has developed an online reporting tool to help Malaysian palm oil suppliers meet the Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) national certification criteria.

The Supplier Reporting Tool (SRT) enables suppliers to assess their performance based on MSPO requirements and Wilmar's own No Deforestation, No Peat, No Exploitation (NDPE) policy.

In a statement today, Wilmar's Group Sustainability General Manager, Perpetua George said the SRT allowed the company to determine the compliance level of suppliers and assist those with lower scores to overcome setbacks in complying with sustainability requirements.

She said Wilmar, the world's largest palm oil processor and merchandiser, had been collaborating with the Malaysian Palm Oil Certification Council (MPOCC) to provide support to suppliers.

"The SRT allows us to engage with suppliers, share knowledge and lend support in preparing for the MSPO certification. – Bernama
