24 Aug 2020Permata received information from RAN's report titled “Major Brands and Banks Complicit in the Production of Conflict Palm Oil on Stolen Community Lands in Indonesia” that our indirect supplier PT. Dua Perkasa Lestari (DPL) is alleged to have conducted deforestation and community land grab

Permata do not have direct relationship with PT. Dua Perkasa Lestari and reached out to PT. Beurata Subur Persada (BSP) as our direct supplier sourcing from DPL for clarification
26 Aug 2020As Permata is currently not sourcing from PT. BSP, PT. BSP declined to provide clarification. We will engage PT. BSP on PT. DPL issue when PT. BSP reenter our supply chain

5 Apr 2022Through our customer, Permata received a report indicating PT. Dua Perkasa Lestari (DPL) was found to have allegedly develop 4 hectares of peatland in February 2022

Permata immediately seek clarification regarding the allegation with PT Beurata Subur Persada (BSP)
6 Apr 2022After engaging with PT. BSP, PT. BSP forwarded PT. DPL permits from Aceh government regarding the maximization of HGU land and the RKPPLP (Rencana Kerja Pembukaan dan/atau Pengolahan Lahan Perkebunan - Work Plan for Plantation Land Clearing and/or Processing) of the said land to be developed

Permata informed PT. BSP that even though PT. DPL has full legal right to open the land, since it is allegedly opened on peat, it infringed on Permata sustainability policy as well as Permata supplier code

Permata requested PT. DPL to clarify on the peat development allegation
20 Apr 2022PT. DPL suggested Permata to send a team to visit PT. DPL to discuss the allegation. Permata requested a zoom meeting instead

No agreement on the mode of communication reached. Further communication with PT. DPL was unsuccessful
22 Sept 2022After a long deliberation, Permata deemed PT DPL to be non compliant and therefore suspended from Permata's supply chain.
Permata requested PT. BSP to immediately stop sourcing from PT DPL, since it is not aligned with Permata’s Sustainability Policy

PT. BSP has complied with Permata's request and has stopped sourcing from PT. DPL effective immediately
