Removal of Restriction on PureCircle Stevia Imports into the
U.S.
PureCircle (LSE: PURE), the world's leading producer and
marketer of high purity stevia ingredients, welcomes confirmation
that the U.S. Customs and Border Protection ('CBP') has removed
PureCircle from the Withhold Release Order ('WRO'). The company's
trade with its U.S. based customers, which represented one third of
the company's sales in its last financial year, can now resume on a
regular basis.
Commenting, the Group CEO Magomet Malsagov said:
"We understand, and fully support, the CBP's commitment to
ensuring that forced labour is never used in the production of any
products imported into the USA. We are pleased that this matter has
been rigorously investigated and that PureCircle has been cleared
by the CBP.
This experience has only reinforced our commitment to human
rights and fair labour practices in any of our markets as well as
strengthened our capabilities in providing traceability and
transparency as the stevia industry's only vertically integrated
natural supply chain."
