Environmental Commitment and International Goals

According to Karen Lopes, General Manager of Marine Operations and Terminals, the action reinforces the goals of the Science Based Target Initiative (SBTI).
The company’s goal is to reduce emissions by 28% by 2030 in scopes 1 and 2.

After this inaugural voyage, Citrosuco plans to gradually expand the use of biodiesel.
The goal is to include the fuel on all five of its own ships and also on the contracted charter.

Global Decarbonization Projects

Sustainability is essential in Citrosuco’s operations and is part of the ESG Commitments 2030.
The company maintains an A- rating in CDP and Gold Seal in GHG Protocol, with audited inventories for over ten years.

One recent project was the energy transition of the Ghent terminal in Belgium.
The facility, the second largest port terminal of Citrosuco, began operating with 100% certified renewable energy.

As stated by Orlando Nastri, Head of ESG, the company works to decarbonize the entire juice supply chain.
The objective is to ensure global competitiveness and support the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Citrosuco Reinforces Leadership in the Juice Sector

Internationally recognized, Citrosuco produces and exports natural and sustainable foods. Furthermore, it constantly seeks to combine integrity, innovation, and efficiency in all its operations.

Thus, the adoption of biodiesel reinforces its global leadership as one of the largest orange juice producers. This step also reaffirms its environmental commitment.

At the same time, the initiative demonstrates a focus on technological innovation, which further strengthens the company’s sustainable image in the international market.

Consequently, this movement integrates carbon reduction, increased international competitiveness, and a consolidated social and environmental responsibility model.

In this way, Citrosuco confirms its prominent position as a global reference in sustainability in navigation, reaffirming its commitment to the future of the planet.
