Our commitment to Corporate Responsibility

 

"Yara's success as a listed company, a global business and an industry shaper is dependent upon public trust and our ethical reputation. We have adopted a sustainable business perspective because it makes sound business sense."

- Thorleif Enger, President and CEO, Yara International.

A century-long nation-building role in Norway has helped Yara develop a keen awareness of our social and environmental responsibility. Driven by our vision of feeding plants to feed people, we have grown into the world’s largest global fertilizer company. By combining scientific research and commercial daring we continue to play a key role in the development of a modern sustainable agriculture.  We have also diversified our business beyond mineral fertilizers and expanded into the industrial sector, developing environmental protection products and food industry essentials.

 

Today, Yara's commitment to corporate responsibility is built on our defining characteristics –we are a public listed company and a global business with local operations that aims to become the Industry Shaper, a leader by example for our business sector, delivering leading financial and environmental performance.

 

We know that our reputation no longer relies solely upon financial performance, but increasingly on how we perform as a corporate citizen. Consequently, our business perspective and actions integrate commercial, social and environmental dimensions with a long-term growth outlook in all aspects of our operations.
