Corporate Social Responsibility at Smithfield Foods

The way we see it, how we bring you good food is just as important as the food itself. In all we do, Smithfield Foods remains committed to environmental leadership, food safety, employee safety, animal welfare and community involvement.

Protecting the Environment

Providing good food responsibly means going above and beyond to be stewards of the environment. Our commitment to environmental leadership is reflected in our ISO 14001 certification, the gold standard for environmental management.
