SD Guthrie International is the UK's leading sustainable palm oil producers since 2010. Not only we felt responsible to set up a dedicated supply chain of traceable and certified palmoil to Europe, but also many food producers put more emphases on a supply chain security. Therefore, we built Europe's first dedicated palm oil refinery in Liverpool (UK). So, we have an integrated supply chain for our oil.
You can count on our state-of-the-art bakery fats production facility. We offer our own branded range of frying oils and bakery ingredients. Besides, we supply bulk oil products for industrial use in the food and personal care sectors. In 2015, Sime Darby Plantation Bhd, the plantation arm of Malaysia's conglomerate Sime Darby Bhd, is the new owner of New Britain Palm Oil Ltd. In 2019, the downstream business of Sime Darby Plantation was re-branded to SD Guthrie International. SD Guthrie International also owns the multi-oil refinery and specialty lecithin factory SD Guthrie International Zwijndrecht Refinery in The Netherlands.
By choosing SD Guthrie International for your sustainable palm oil, you can be confident that you are doing the right thing for your business, your customers, and the planet.

Consumers are increasingly concerned about where their food is coming from. Also do they want to identify ingredients and know they are traceable to sustainable sources. Besides, EU laws now require oils to be declared by name, rather than the generic term 'vegetable oil'. All the palm oil we use can be traced back to our own RSPO certified sustainable estates and associated smallholders. Moreover, sustainability is our core business driver.
