What is
ATSOURCE?

AtSource is our sustainability offering for sustainable products and supply chains, created to drive change for farmers, communities, ecosystems and customers. The AtSource insights platform demonstrates social and environmental performance by providing a comprehensive view on sustainability data & metrics across supply chains.

AtSource inspires action through customized impact programs together with our customers and partners.


History: AtSource was created by Olam Group in 2018 as part of its mission to re-imagine global agriculture and food systems. AtSource is now owned by Olam Food Ingredients ofi and also available for customers from Olam Agri.

Millions of smallholders who grow cash crops are living at subsistence levels, while natural resources, such as soil and forest are being degraded or lost. Meanwhile around a third of all food produced is wasted and the world’s population will increase by two billion by 2050.

We created AtSource as an answer to:

  1. Complexity of agricultural supply chains
  2. A growing demand for transparency from consumers
  3. Increasing need to comply legislation & demand for ESG reporting

Our customers are asking for help to:

  1. Increase sustainably produced volumes
  2. Develop transparent & traceable supply chains
  3. Protect & help differentiate their brands
  4. Come into action

AtSource actively monitors 10 core sustainability topics related to 12 SDG’s, across our network of smallholder farmers, owned estates and farms, on 6 continents.
