Our Values
We are all writing Fonterra’s story. As individuals, we are shaped by different cultural, professional and personal experiences. Our shared values enable us to combine our personal strengths with those of others to make Fonterra stronger, better, more innovative and more successful.
We could write a novel about our values. We’re a company that spans many countries and cultures, and values are hugely important to us. But when you boil it down, there are just four simple things that guide us. And it doesn’t matter who or where we are within Fonterra, these are the values we share.
Co-operative Spirit
Our co-operative spirit means we put the whole of Fonterra before any individual part. It means we all pitch in, volunteering our knowledge, capabilities and personal networks. We always put safety first for both ourselves and others. We form lasting partnerships. We respect what is important to our communities and our actions promote and enhance our reputation while honouring our heritage.
Do What’s Right
Doing what’s right means maintaining the highest ethical standards at all times. It is often simply doing what we say we will. It’s about speaking openly and being prepared to have the tough conversations. It’s about treating others as we expect them to treat us. And it’s about having the courage to speak up and challenge when things just don’t seem right.
Challenge Boundaries
Challenging boundaries will keep us one step ahead. It means we look at the future through customer’s eyes. It also means we’ll never sit still; we’ll always be lifting standards and improving quality. It’s about inventing, improving and solving. And it means learning from our successes and our mistakes.
