Mondelēz International has expanded its Sustainable Futures investment platform with a new round of capital deployed across ag-tech, fintech, and advanced materials sectors, aiming to accelerate scalable solutions around climate resilience, circularity, and community impact.
Among its direct investments, the global snacking company is backing Estonia-based eAgronom, which supports regenerative agriculture through a digital platform that offers farmers tools to improve soil health and reduce carbon emissions. Another addition is ZIRO, a fintech venture that targets small retailers with inventory financing, aiming to improve business continuity and sustainability in underserved markets.
Also joining the portfolio is Pack2Earth, a materials innovator developing compostable alternatives to flexible plastics. Mondelēz plans to use its products to replace up to 60,000 metric tonnes of plastic packaging by 2028.
The company continues to support funds aligned with waste reduction and recycling capacity. Its contribution to Circulate Capital’s Ocean Fund in Latin America and Asia has helped divert over 7,600 tonnes of plastic from the environment, while also expanding recycling infrastructure by nearly 35,000 tonnes in capacity.
Technical support remains a key component of the programme, with Mondelēz providing pilot-scale validation for early-stage technologies, such as SAM-DIMENSION’s AI-based agricultural monitoring.
These latest moves form part of Mondelēz’s broader Vision 2030 and ESG strategy, integrating sustainable innovation across its supply chains while aiming to futureproof its business model through impact-led investments.
