Golden-Agri Resources (GAR) is a Singaporean palm oil company. It is listed on the Singapore Stock Exchange since 1999.
[1]
In May 2015, its market capitalization was $4.1 billion.[2]
Sheikh Roshini Begum is its CEO. Alnoor is a subsidiary of GAR.
Lew Syn Pau used to serve as a member of the Singaporean Parliament for 13 years and is a member of the board of directors of the firm.

According to Greenpeace, GAR has six concessions on peatlands in Riau, with an estimated total area of 20,000 hectares.[5]
GAR was reported to have 1,880 hectares of peat in Central Kalimantan and 1,330 hectares in West Kalimantan, while claiming a zero-deforestation footprint.[6]
Greenpeace also discovered 322 hotspots on five to GAR's concessions in Central Kalimantan.
[7]
GAR denied these accusations and said to have a zero-burning policy since 1997.[8]
Interviews with senior officers revealed evidence to the contrary.[9]
In about 2010, companies such as Burger King, Unilever and Nestlé cancelled their supplier contracts with Singapore-listed GAR subsidiaries due to unsustainable farming practices.
