Palm Oil Operations

Palm oil is at the heart of NBPOL's business and the foundation of our operations across Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands.

As a vertically integrated producer, we manage the entire value chain from plantation development and milling to the production of certified, fully traceable palm oil products. All of our palm oil operations are certified in accordance with the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) standards.

Our focus remains on responsible upstream production, whereas downstream refining, international trading and global marketing are managed by SD Guthrie International, the downstream arm of our parent company.
