Ingredion, a global supplier of ingredients such as starches, sweeteners, and pea protein, has been recognized for the eleventh time as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies by Ethisphere. Out of the 136 organizations on the 2025 list, Ingredion is one of just nine honorees in the food, beverage, and agriculture industry. The assessment is based on Ethisphere’s Ethics Quotient® which evaluates companies on their ethics and compliance, governance, values, and environmental and social impact.

In addition to this achievement, Ingredion has also demonstrated a commitment to meeting consumer demands for recognizable ingredients and natural claims. The company introduced new ingredients in 2024, such as clean-label citrus fibers and a corn starch texturizer for vegan cheese. CEO Jim Zallie credits this recognition to the global teams at Ingredion who prioritize integrity and ethics in all aspects of the organization, emphasizing a values-driven culture that serves as the foundation for actions taken with all stakeholders.
