About us
M.P. Evans is a responsible producer of certified sustainable crude palm oil with plantations and mills in five Indonesian provinces.
At the end of 2023, the Group owned 49,600 hectares of oil palm and operated six palm-oil mills. In addition, it managed 15,900 further hectares on behalf of associated smallholders. The Group is focused on ongoing growth and delivering progressive shareholder returns.
It is committed to the wellbeing of the communities in which it operates through the provision of high-quality housing, schools, community clubhouses and sport facilities, places of worship, and medical clinics. The Group’s shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange AIM.
Our operational and financial success in producing crude palm oil comes from taking the right decisions for the long term. M.P. Evans works closely with stakeholders, especially those in and around its operations. The foundation for operational excellence is control of our operations; investment in top quality planting; a competent and motivated workforce; and a supportive local community.
Our excellent operational results are down to a long-term sustainable approach that matches the life of our plants: palms live for 25 years before they are replanted. With first-class plantation assets, a strong management team across our operations and a track record of success, we have long-standing experience in the plantation industry: the Group is 150 years old, having started life in tea and rubber.
Palms are a long-lasting investment, as are the relationships built up with communities living in and around its plantations. The Group makes sure that the smallholder co-operatives attached to its projects are a success; they are as much a long-term investment as the palms themselves or the infrastructure on our plantations. M.P. Evans helps meet the growing global demand for palm oil and palm kernels that are used in many everyday food products as well as cosmetics and bio-diesel.
After a period of sustained investment in Indonesia the Group’s crops have increased significantly, underpinning its ability to pay attractive returns to investors through increasing dividends.
