First launched in 2009, the WWF Palm Oil Buyers Scorecard assesses and ranks the commitments and actions of manufacturers, food service providers and retailers in favour of sustainable palm oil. Over the years, the scorecard series have helped raise the urgency of addressing the issues of unsustainable palm oil production and use across several key markets, as well as encouraged brands and retailers to move forward on the journey to deforestation- and conversion-free sustainable palm oil. In its 2020 edition, the scorecard analysed 173 retailers, manufacturers and food service companies headquartered in Europe, North America, Asia and Australia.
