Network Members

We are the only investor network covering the risks and opportunities in the global food sector

FAIRR was launched in 2015 and comprises of an investor network that has since attracted over more than 400 investor members with upwards of $80 trillion in assets. The network includes leading investment managers and asset owners, pension funds and insurance companies worldwide. FAIRR provides research, data and tools that raise awareness of risks and opportunities related to the global food system and focusing on the intensive animal agriculture industry. It elevates the investor voice to guide the transition to a sustainable food system.

Collaboration advances impact

The FAIRR Initiative engages in proactive dialogues with investors, companies, policymakers and stakeholders around material issues in the global food system. FAIRR supports its investor members to identify and prioritise these factors through cutting-edge research and data, which can then be integrated into investment decision-making processes and provides members the opportunity to join engagements with companies on specific issues.

While membership in FAIRR does not explicitly or implicitly imply support of, or participation in, any particular project or engagement, FAIRR members may take the opportunity to support engagements led by FAIRR on topics of interest to them. Through these engagements, FAIRR enables investor members to exercise their influence as responsible stewards of capital while safeguarding the long-term value of their investment portfolios.
