Sustainable Procurement Plan
By establishing management guidelines and giving priority to sustainable procurement, Hsin Tung Yang reduces environmental impact while ensuring quality, leading the food industry toward green transformation.
Sustainable Procurement Strategy
Prioritize the procurement of food and non-food products with “Carbon Labels, Carbon Reduction Labels, and Green Labels.”
Beverage paper cups at airport shopping areas and National Freeway Service Areas have been replaced with environmentally friendly paper materials certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.
Development of cultural and creative products and handicrafts, with priority given to the introduction of recycled and circular products.
Development of Hsin Tung Yang eco-friendly bags that meet diverse consumption scenarios and can be reused, actively supporting plastic reduction.
Responsible production and the development of food products with no additives or fewer additives to reduce impacts on the environment and health.
Providing venues for disadvantaged groups to sell their products and providing product commercialization guidance.
Hsin Tung Yang has been promoting a sustainable procurement strategy over the long term. Since 2004, the Company has used soy ink for printing. By 2025, the Dayuan Factory had accumulated six categories of sustainable procurement items, including products such as soy ink-printed color boxes, RSPO sustainable palm oil, traceable pork, recycled cardboard boxes, FSC-certified labels, and carbon footprint labels.
In 2026, Hsin Tung Yang plans to use paper materials made entirely from recycled or environmentally friendly pulp verified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) for beverage paper cups and cup sleeves provided at airport shopping malls and national highway service areas. In the future, in addition to increasing the procurement share of existing items year by year, Hsin Tung Yang will also expand the types of sustainable procurement items.

Soy Ink Color Box Printing
Uses natural soybean oil instead of petroleum-based ink and features low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, easy deinking, and easy recyclability. It is environmentally friendly and complies with the SOY INK label certification of the American Soybean Association.

RSPO Sustainable Palm Oil
For ingredients used in Hsin Tung Yang’s pastries (such as fruit fillings), priority is given to verified oils that comply with the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) Mass Balance certification model. This certification strictly follows 8 principles, 39 criteria, and 144 indicators, protecting biodiversity and the rights and interests of local farmers at the source while ensuring information transparency and implementing responsible procurement management.

Traceable Pork
Emphasizes transparency of production information. The products have obtained certifications for Agricultural Product Production and Marketing Traceability, ISO 22000, and HACCP, implementing traceable food safety management.

Recycled Cardboard Boxes
The Dayuan Factory uses 100% recycled cardboard boxes for all self-manufactured products, actively reducing single-use waste and greenhouse gas emissions.

Carbon Footprint Labeling
At stores in national freeway service areas and intercity bus transfer stations, priority is given to introducing beverages certified with the Ministry of Environment’s "Product Carbon Footprint Label." Through the purchasing influence of its sales channels, Hsin Tung Yang strengthens Scope 3 supply chain carbon reduction management and guides green consumption trends in the market.
Green Product Results: A total of 13 carbon-labeled beverages have been introduced to date, including well-known brands such as HeySong, Minute Maid, AGV, Royal Tea Garden, Super Supau, and Taiyen.

FSC-Certified Paper Materials
Priority is given to procuring products certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) to promote biodiversity and sustainable forest management.
- Food and beverage products: Stores in each national freeway service area and intercity bus transfer station introduce products with FSC-labeled packaging, such as Kuang Chuan (soy milk, rice milk, and rich milk tea) and Bomy Fruit and Vegetable Juices.
- Printed materials: Starting with the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2024, Hsin Tung Yang’s three major seasonal catalogs—"Food Fashion Magazine," "Highway Mail-Order Magazine," and "Monthly Store Promotions"—have all used FSC-certified environmentally friendly paper materials.
Local Procurement
Local Procurement Strategy
Hsin Tung Yang implements the concept of "consume local products produced locally" and continues to promote local procurement initiatives. The Company prioritizes the introduction of high-quality products produced domestically and featuring local characteristics, while encouraging consumers to choose these products. Through these efforts, Hsin Tung Yang supports the development of local industries in Taiwan and creates shared value with local farmers.
