DUO LI DUO FOODS CORPORATION, which has long been deeply involved in sustainable agriculture and circular supply chains, secured the "ESG Social Contribution Award - Outstanding Award" and the "Product Award - Potential Award" in one fell swoop at the sixth "2026 Taiwan Circular Economy Awards," while simultaneously obtaining the internationally benchmarked "CTI Practice Mark," becoming one of the high-profile representative enterprises in the field of circular economy this cycle.


Receiving these three prestigious honors not only represents high external affirmation of DUO LI DUO's long-term achievements in ESG governance, circular economy, and sustainable supply chains, but also highlights that its circular model, built through the cross-domain integration of agriculture, forestry, and fisheries, has progressively become an important demonstration case for the upgrading of Taiwan's green supply chain, showcasing the competitive potential of Taiwanese sustainable brands in aligning with international markets.

Originating from Tainan and inheriting the spirit of five generations of farming families, DUO LI DUO has for years cultivated the development of green products such as low-carbon dried fruits, sustainable bamboo salt, and eco-friendly fishery products, taking "being responsible for the land with care" as its core brand philosophy. In recent years, the enterprise has actively promoted regional revitalization, circular agriculture, and the net-zero transition, establishing a sustainable supply chain system that encompasses environmental sustainability, mutual prosperity with local communities, and market value, thereby progressively forging a new business model for the integrated circular development of Taiwan's agriculture, forestry, and fisheries.

In terms of agricultural circulation, DUO LI DUO processes Tainan Yujing old-tree Irwin mangoes and multiple fruit varieties into sugar-free, low-carbon dried fruits by means of contract farming and the purchase of off-specification fruits. This not only reduces fresh fruit spoilage and food waste, but also effectively lowers energy consumption in the cold chain and transportation. Its by-products are re-manufactured into organic compost and returned to farmland, forming a complete circular system that echoes the core spirit of "Responsible Consumption and Production" in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

In the field of forestry circulation, DUO LI DUO utilizes temperate bamboo species to develop technology for three-roasted bamboo salt, fruit salt, and seafood-flavored salt through a high-temperature roasting craftsmanship that combines natural sea salt and bamboo materials. Furthermore, the biochar generated during the manufacturing process is reintroduced into agricultural land as a medium for soil improvement and carbon sequestration, demonstrating the circular utilization and negative-carbon potential of bamboo forests, and practicing the concepts of low-carbon production and natural symbiosis.

Regarding fishery circulation, the brand has introduced a "fish, grass, goat" symbiosis model, utilizing natural grazing of goat herds to manage the vegetation surrounding fish ponds, which significantly reduces the use of chemical herbicides. This establishes a low-carbon fishery model that balances land sustainability, ecological balance, and eco-friendly aquaculture, serving as an innovative case of integrated circular agriculture and fishery.

In addition to innovations in products and manufacturing processes, DUO LI DUO has actively advanced a sustainable supply chain and a green procurement system, strengthening local traceability, transparent management, and long-term cooperation mechanisms to connect farmers, forestry workers, fishermen, and supply partners in jointly building an industry chain with responsibility, efficiency, and shared value. The enterprise has currently established a supply chain of over 168 green products and has successfully exported Taiwanese agricultural products to markets in Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Europe, continuously enhancing the international visibility of Taiwan's sustainable agriculture.

DUO LI DUO stated that winning these awards is not only an important milestone for the enterprise, but also a commitment to the land, the farmers, and the next generation. In the future, it will continue to deepen the integrated circular model of agriculture, forestry, and fisheries, expand its layout in sustainable supply chains and green procurement, and combine the directions of circular economy, ESG, and net-zero transition, so that the circular wisdom and sustainable value nurtured by Taiwan's land can become an important window for the world to recognize Taiwan's sustainable power, injecting new momentum from Taiwan into the development of the global sustainability industry.
