Our Purpose
ADM's purpose is to unlock the power of nature, to enrich the quality of life.
As an essential global agricultural supply chain manager and processor, a premier human and animal nutrition provider, a trailblazer in health and well-being, and a leader in business-driven sustainability that supports agriculture, resilient supply chains, and the growing bioeconomy, we’re meeting critical needs from harvest to home.
Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, ADM has 44,000 colleagues who serve customers across six continents, generating revenue of $86 billion in 2024.
What we Do
We don't own farms, but we work with growers in the world’s most productive agricultural regions to support their livelihoods and purchase their crops, from corn and wheat to soybeans and sunflower.
We use our unmatched, integrated global network of elevators, trucks, railcars, barges and ships to move those crops from areas of supply to areas of demand, constantly adjusting and shifting where we’re originating and delivering products to respond to global events and ensure we’re meeting global needs.
Those crops are the basis for ingredients that go into an array of products for billions of consumers. We’re a leader in colors, flavors and innovative ingredient combinations and systems that make up countless products you eat and drink every day, from protein bars to energy drinks, yogurt to smoothies, bread to beer. And not just for humans; ADM offers a range of ingredients, flavors and solutions from nature to meet every animal’s needs.
We're a global leader in health and well-being, with a cutting-edge range of probiotics, enzymes, supplements and more. And ADM is helping build the new bioeconomy, from biofuels, to carbon capture and sequestration, to innovative bio-based consumer and industrial products.
