Benson Hill achieves ProTerra sustainability certification

Benson Hill announced that it became one of the first U.S.-based ingredient providers to achieve the international ProTerra Certification, a global standard that sets the bar for sustainable agricultural practices and labor practices as well as segregated non-GMO programs and more. The ProTerra Certification program promotes social and environmental sustainability through food and feed supply chains, to support efforts to continuously improve day-to-day business operations and to help organizations to engage and implement the concept of sustainable development. Throughout an extensive certification process, Benson Hill completed audits of its Creston, Iowa, and Seymour, Ind., plants as well as two shipping ports that store and transport its non-GMO soymeal. "Through our journey with ProTerra we gained important insights to solidify our position as a global ingredients company focused on responsible growth," said Andres Martin, Executive Vice President and General Manager, International for Benson Hill. "Achieving the ProTerra certification standard is a testament to the ESG principles guiding our work to sustainably deliver our non-GMO soybean portfolio to markets within and outside the United States."
