The climate change crisis continued to impact our world, posing one of the geopolitical threats to the global community. It is thus crucial for the government, the private sector, and civil society to collaborate and timely adapt to these changes. At Mitr Phol Group, we recognize these challenges and are committed to conducting our business in line with the principles of the circular economy within the sustainable development framework. Our business practices are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), aiming to balance economic growth with social and environmental sustainability.
Simultaneously, we remain committed to empowering farmers by enhancing their knowledge and skills, transforming them into modern farmers who harness technology to enhance efficiency. We disseminate modern farming techniques through the "Mitr Phol ModernFarm" approach and extend this knowledge to the educational sector to prepare future agricultural professionals in Thailand. In addition, Mitr Phol Group is dedicated to adding value to agricultural products by optimizing renewable resources under the "From Waste to Value Creation" concept. We have expanded sugar production and various forms of renewable energy into a bio-based business that transforms agricultural waste into environmentally friendly industries and products while adhering to principles of good corporate governance.
In our environmental efforts, Mitr Phol Group aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030 and reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. We support efforts to combat climate change both in Thailand and globally and promote sustainable development initiatives among our customers and suppliers. A significant milestone in our journey is the Mitr Phol Dan Chang Complex in Suphan Buri Province, certified by the Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (Public Organization) as the country's first Carbon Neutrality Complex. Furthermore, we plan to expand our operations to create an ecosystem conducive to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, encompassing factory operations across the entire supply chain and investments in environmentally friendly businesses.
On this occasion, I would like to express my gratitude to our employees, farmers, customers, suppliers, and business partners for their unwavering support of Mitr Phol Group's business operations in accordance with the sustainable development framework. We are committed to advancing Thailand's agricultural sector as a hub for food production, raw materials for bio-based industrial development, and a reliable source of renewable energy. Together, we will strive to thrive, prosper, and create value for a sustainable future
