From Commitment to Action: ofi Brings Nutrition Support to 70% of Primary Employees
Geneva - October 24,2024 – Global ingredient supplier ofi has reached a significant milestone in its commitment to workforce wellbeing,now providing tailored nutrition support to 70% of its 18,000 primary employees worldwide. This achievement marks substantial progress toward ofiS 2030 goal, driven in partnership with The Consumer Goods Forum’s (CGF) Workforce Nutrition Alliance (WNA).
ofi, operating in over 50 countries with more than 120 manufacturing sites and a sourcing network encompassing 2.4 million farmers, initially committed to supporting the nutrition of its 24,500-strong workforce. Despite a reduction in overall employee numbers, the company has more than doubled access to its nutrition programs – from 6,000 in 2022 to 12,500 projected by 2025.
The nutrition support includes access to subsidized,free meals and nutrition-focused health checks,customized to meet the needs and cultural contexts of employees across diverse regions. ofi attributes its success to strong local implementation combined with global HR leadership.
This progress aligns with a growing global focus on workforce nutrition, recently underscored at the Paris N4G Summit in March 2025, where the private sector’s critical role in promoting healthier diets and addressing malnutrition was highlighted by stakeholders including the CGF.
