Smarter, more
Sustainable Farming
The quality of our produce begins with our growers. So, too, does our approach to sustainability.
That's why McCain is constantly working with our growers on ways to make processes more sustainable. This includes providing regenerative agriculture training to our growers across ANZ, and supporting them with financing solutions to help accelerate their adoption of regenerative agricultural practices.

Resource-efficient operations
At McCain, we work hard to ensure we use precious natural resources responsibly.
Our Timaru plants have substituted biomass (wood chips) for coal, increasing their boiler’s temperature output whilst reducing CO2 emissions. They’ve also installed innovative PEF potato peeling tech, reducing steam demand.
Food that’s as
Good as it looks
Our product can't just look amazing, we want customers to know that ‘McCain’ means natural, nutritional and full of real, incredible flavour.
We’ve introduced nutrition and clean ingredient policies to ensure we meet the ever-growing health needs of consumers as well as environmental and animal welfare concerns. And we’re constantly seeking new ways to improve, whether that's working on reducing the sodium in a number of products without compromising on taste, or expanding our healthier vegetarian-forward range.
Communities
that thrive
We wouldn’t be where we are today without the help of local communities. So, it’s vital to us that we give something back whenever we can.
We’ve donated hundreds of thousands of meals to food relief organisations across ANZ – and we support McCain employees to volunteer in communities through our ‘Chips In’ program. We’re in it together, for the long haul.
