Charter Components
Tillamook’s Stewardship Charter outlines what sustainability means for the organization. It serves as the backdrop for decision-making and facilitates a consistent approach to sustainability across the business.
Defining Stewardship
Tillamook focused on its six key stakeholders and set commitments that work to uphold shared values. These commitments frame its definition of Stewardship:
- Thriving farms
- Healthful cows
- Product excellence
- Sustained natural resources
- Fulfilled employees
- Enriched communities
“Our Stewardship Charter has been an important tool as we continue to build out our Stewardship Management System. Working with Quantis, we converted the outcomes of our materiality assessment into an actionable strategy supported by critical stakeholders.”
