Golden Agri-Resources Ltd (Sinar Mas Group)
HQ SG
Golden Agri-Resources Ltd (Singapore Exchange: GGR; Sinar Mas Group, Widjaja family; ~$9B revenue) is one of the world's largest oil palm plantation companies with approximately 463,000 hectares of planted oil palm across Sumatra and Kalimantan (Indonesia). GAR produces approximately 4.3 million tonnes of FFB per year from its own plantations plus smallholder purchases. GAR operates 50+ palm oil mills in Indonesia, processing FFB into crude palm oil (CPO) and palm kernel oil (PKO). The Sinar Mas Group — the Widjaja family conglomerate — is the ultimate parent, with interests also in paper/pulp (Asia Pulp & Paper), property, and financial services. GAR has been heavily involved in deforestation controversy: the company was suspended by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) in 2015 for burning peatland in South Sumatra and Kalimantan — fires so extensive they created a regional haze crisis affecting Malaysia and Singapore. GAR adopted a no-deforestation, no-peat, no-exploitation (NDPE) policy in 2011 after pressure from Greenpeace, though NGOs have documented continuing violations. EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) effective 2024-2025 requires GAR to provide geolocation data for every parcel of land supplying its supply chain — a compliance burden for a company with millions of smallholder suppliers.
