In August 2017, Taronga Zoo in Sydney launched Tiger Trek, a Sumatran tiger exhibit that combines the excitement of seeing four endangered tigers with an educational program designed to raise awareness on Certified Sustainable Palm Oil. The experience seeks to demonstrate to consumers how their shopping choices can help preserve the natural habitat of Sumatran tigers. Products doing right by the planet are rated as being ‘Tigerrific,’ showing that Ferrero is considered best of the best when it comes to sourcing palm oil.

At Ferrero we identify ourselves with the motto “Work, create, donate”, conceived and introduced by Mr Michele Ferrero at the very beginning of his business pursuits, and which also represents one of the company’s core values. In essence, we favour the “ethics of doing” over the “practice of appearing”. This same philosophy has inspired, and still inspires the whole Ferrero Group constantly engaged in social responsibility activities, as an integral part of our own way of being and of operating, since the very beginning.

On the 15th of August, Ferrero Australia and New Zealand conducted a company-wide volunteering day in Sydney, bringing our principle of “Work, Create, Donate” to life with an innovative and inspiring experience.

In Australia, Nutella went the extra mile to spread the love during February 2018, 'The Month of Love', by breaking the Guinness World Record for the ‘Longest Line of Pancakes with Nutella’.

In January 2017, the Ferrero factory in Lithgow, NSW, opened its doors to employees and their families to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the company. This was a special occasion as it was the first opportunity in history that families and friends of our employees were able to visit the factory. However, this was not the only reason to celebrate as this event also coincided with the factory’s 40th year of operation in Australia.
