Sime Darby Plantation (SDP), a producer of sustainable palm oil, launched ‘Open Palm’ – an online dashboard that provides critical information on the traceability of its supply chain.
Open Palm provides SDP customers with access to key data on the origin of all palm products that go through SDP refineries, be it from its various oil palm mills, right down to its plantations, as well as third party plantations.
“This is a significant milestone for Sime Darby Plantation in our efforts to provide more value to our discerning customers. In addition to our enduring commitment to promote sustainable products and practices in this industry, we also seek to demonstrate the integrity of our supply chain. Open Palm will allow our clients to trace and assess the origin of our palm oil products,” said Datuk Franki Anthony Dass, Managing Director of SDP.
The main features of the Open Palm dashboard concept can be viewed online at http://www.simedarbyplantation.com/Open_Palm.aspx from 17th November 2015. Full access to the traceability dashboard will only be made available to key SDP clients in order to protect the confidential nature of commercial information contained, which may include data on products and purchasing patterns.
