SHIFTING FOOD SYSTEMS
at the Speed of Business
In Asia and beyond, Lever Foundation partners with food companies to build sustainable, humane food systems. We secure corporate commitments, develop industry standards, and provide implementation support—turning boardroom decisions into supply chain transformation.
ASIA IS KEY
Asia feeds 60% of the world's population, raises 75% of its farm animals, and generates 60% of global food emissions. The region that transformed from scarcity to abundance in one generation now faces a harder challenge: making that abundance sustainable.
Animal protein consumption here already surpasses the E.U. and U.S. combined, accounting for half of global growth in demand. Most animals are confined in industrial systems that intensify suffering while accelerating disease transmission. Diet-related illness climbs. Land and water strain under production pressure.
What unfolds in Asia's food systems over the next decade shapes the world we all inhabit. This is where change matters most—and where corporate decisions can redirect entire supply chains toward sustainability.
WHAT WE DO
Plant-based options appearing on menus from Manila hotels to Shanghai hotpot chains. Purchase orders redirected to cage-free suppliers. Headlines reaching millions across Asia. This is how food systems change—through corporate commitments, producer partnerships, and public awareness.
Corporate Partnerships That Deliver
We work directly with food companies across Asia to implement sustainable protein policies. From multinational hotels to local restaurant chains, we provide research, supplier connections, and implementation roadmaps. Every commitment secured means emissions reduced, animals spared from cruelty, menus reimagined.
From Cage to Barn, From Soy to Shelf
We partner with egg producers transitioning 320,000 hens from cages to barns. Support alternative protein companies scaling production. Connect plant-based manufacturers with major buyers. Change happens at production facilities—where infrastructure investments signal permanent shifts.
Messages That Move Markets
Our content reaches millions across Asia through strategic PR, social media, and digital campaigns. Headlines in major outlets shift perception. Viral content makes plant-based eating aspirational, not sacrificial. When consumers understand, demand follows. When demand shifts, companies respond.
