Our Actions

Dole Biogas
Our biogas plants are transforming pineapple waste into clean fuel to power our operations and minimize environmental impact (Scope 1 & 2 reduction).

Dole Specialty Ingredient
Minimizing waste, maximizing potential. We transform leftover plant and fruit materials into high-value specialty ingredients.

Pinatex and Musa Fabrica
We transform waste pineapple leaves into Pinatex, a luxurious plant-based leather embraced by premium brands. Similarly, banana stems find new life as sustainable fibers for fashionable clothing through our partnership with Musa Fabric.

Establishing Sierra Tropical
This new pineapple source launched commercial production in 2022, creating jobs and improving living conditions for the local community through our business practices.

Sunshine For All Fund
This startup fund has empowered 280 startups and currently supports 29 active projects focused on strategic innovation and sustainability partnerships.
