Scoular, a grain and ingredient handling and processing company for human and pet food, has announced a new team that will drive the company’s corporate sustainability strategy and provide expertise to help customers meet their sustainability goals.

The five-member sustainability team partners with the company’s businesses to provide sustainability solutions for Scoular’s global grain, feed, and food customers, as well as its producers.

“Scoular’s team possesses expertise and experience in creating innovative sustainability solutions,” said Jennifer Deitloff, Scoular vice president, senior associate general counsel and chief diversity officer and leader of the company’s sustainability efforts. “Our company, customers and partners will benefit from their knowledge and passion.”

The sustainability team is comprised of:

In addition, Brian Ellis, who has extensive experience working in regenerative ag with producers, partners closely with the sustainability team as a member of Scoular’s producer strategy team.
