Since our founding in 1910, Blue Diamond has been committed to bringing the highest-quality, innovative almond products to the world. As a nonprofit cooperative located in the Central Valley of California, Blue Diamond is wholly owned by roughly 3,000 mostly small, multigenerational growers. Our approach to business growth has evolved to integrate sustainability into our core practices, as we believe it is an essential element of Blue Diamond’s commitments to excellence, innovation and quality. As we continue to expand globally, Blue Diamond remains grounded in the principles that have made us the trusted brand we are today — building strong relationships with our growers and customers, communicating directly and honestly, and working as a team to realize the greatest impact from our efforts. We achieved strong grower participation in our Orchard Stewardship Incentive Program (OSIP), which is designed to encourage growers to continually learn, assess and enhance their sustainable growing practices. We have developed leadership committees that will guide our sustainability and community-focused efforts and continue to leverage the expertise of our growers and employees to accelerate efforts across all areas of business as we plan for the future.
