Alltech Spain was awarded a Gold Medal from EcoVadis, with an overall result of 85 out of 100 — putting the office in the 98th percentile of all companies assessed.

EcoVadis, the leading provider of business sustainability ratings, rigorously evaluates companies across 21 sustainability criteria based on international sustainability standards. A strong EcoVadis assessment ensures that a company is recognised by customers, partners, industries, and government entities as being truly dedicated to advancing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles in its operations.

Medals are awarded by EcoVadis based on percentile rankings against all the companies assessed over the previous 12 months.

"This means our performance in Spain places us in the top 2% of companies globally, across all industries," said Tara McCarthy, Alltech's global vice president of ESG. "Four years ago, Alltech outlined a strategic vision for our ESG ambitions with a focus on proof points and team confidence. Over that time, we've expanded our policies, introduced new systems, conducted training and partnered with our value chain — in short, we've taken a lot of action. It gives a great sense of achievement to the entire Alltech team to see that EcoVadis has recognised these efforts."

That achievement was even more impressive than usual this year, as the competitive landscape was especially strong. The companies assessed in the current 12-month cycle achieved higher average results than in prior years, making percentile positioning even more demanding than usual. Achieving this recognition in a more competitive benchmarking environment reflects the powerful performance of Alltech Spain over the past year and is a testament to the team's disciplined work and commitment to sustainability.

"Great work done with passion, commitment and dedication by the Alltech Spain team, led by Paula Senz, culture and talent manager for Alltech Iberia, and Rocio Noguera, Alltech Iberia sustainability technician," said Alex Galipienso, general director at Alltech Iberia. "Congratulations to both as leaders of the project, and thank you to all the Spanish team involved in the project. Without the commitment of the entire team and the help from all departments, this would not have been possible."

This medal, and others that have been awarded to Alltech, are a testament to the company's purpose of Working Together for a Planet of Plenty® and its commitment to implementing environmentally and economically sustainable solutions, fostering ethical business conduct, and prioritising the efficient production of nutritious food. The EcoVadis process validates Alltech's sustainability performance and offers a clear roadmap for enhancing its impact.

Alltech shares its annual progress in the Alltech Sustainability Report, which outlines actions taken to align the business with its commitments to the United Nations Global Compact, the UN Ten Principles and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
