UBS (Ubol Sunflower / subsidiary of Ubol Bio Ethanol) won Thailand's Prime Minister's Export Award 2026 for outstanding sustainable exports, recognized for building a comprehensive sustainability model across cassava supply chains. The company works directly with farmer networks to improve cultivation practices, quality standards, and organic certification while implementing traceability systems. Future plans include developing higher-value cassava products (flour, organic alternatives, food products) and scaling the bioeconomy/circular economy approach—creating shared value for farmers, communities, and the business. The award validates that Thai agricultural businesses can compete globally while building farmer capacity and environmental stewardship.
