Ralcorp Sustainability

Ralcorp is making progress today for a better tomorrow.


Ralcorp recognizes that sustainability is an important part of our responsible corporate citizenship and is a leading concern among our key stakeholders. To this end, Ralcorp is making continuous improvements to the way we do business and our business’ impact on others. Each of our divisions focuses on manufacturing high quality foods in the safest, most efficient manner possible, while maximizing shareholder value. We bring this focus to all of our business operations, including our environmental and social sustainability efforts.

We understand that achieving environmental sustainability does not happen overnight and requires an ongoing commitment to progress.

“Ralcorp is committed to minimizing the environmental footprint of our businesses. Our use of raw materials, manufacturing methods, selection of suppliers, and the distribution of our products are all focused on providing our customers and consumers the highest quality products while working to sustain the environment for future generations.”

The Ralcorp commitment to environmental sustainability helps guide our business operations and our planning for the future. We know we cannot accomplish everything at once, so, we have been focusing on three core environmental impact areas: our efficient use of energy; management of material waste and recycling; and packaging innovation.

On the social sustainability front, Ralcorp’s efforts are anchored by our dedication to making positive contributions in the places where we live and do business, both for our employees and the larger communities. With more than 9,000 employees in 39 manufacturing facilities and offices in the U.S. and Canada, our business operations are far-reaching. As our geographic footprint grows, ensuring a safe, healthy workplace environment for all our employees and supporting our communities is essential. Our social efforts are focused on employee safety, health and wellness, and community involvement.   
   
Ralcorp makes the food that millions of people eat each day, and we are constantly working to improve the ways in which we do this. Looking to the future, we will continue taking steps towards decreasing our environmental impact and making positive social contributions.  As we develop better ways to drive and capture our sustainability performance, we look forward to sharing those improvements with you.
