The Distribution Business Management Association has granted Chiquita Brands International the 2009 Circle of Excellence Award for environmental protection and corporate social responsibility.
“These accomplishments are a testimony to its corporate commitment to sustainability because, in addition to performance benefits, Chiquita believes it is the right thing to do,” said Dr. Omar Helferich, an independent researcher who developed the criteria for the award.
Chiquita was acknowledged for an ongoing transportation initiative that focuses on reducing carbon emissions, just one of several green efforts the company will continue to pursue and champion.
