General Mills response

“These are topics General Mills cares about, as we too want to ensure the future of the world’s food supply. We will continue efforts to advance our work in these areas as part of our commitment to global sustainability.”

Oxfam’s reaction
It is good to see General Mills reiterate a general commitment to global sustainability.  But with an overall score of just 23%, tied for 8th out of 10 companies, and the lowest possible scores on land and farmers, General Mills has significant work to do to improve how they do business. The company should move beyond vague commitments and take concrete steps to address the weaknesses we have revealed in their policies.
