For the third year in succession the Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM) has come out as the top food production company in Fortune Magazine’s ‘World’s Most Admired Companies’ ranking.

The annual ranking evaluated 673 companies from 32 countries by more than 4,100 executives, directors and security analysts. The ratings are dependent on nine criteria, including innovation, people management, use of corporate assets, social responsibility, quality of management, financial soundness, long-term investment value, quality of products and global competitiveness.

“We are extremely proud to again be acknowledged by our peers for our leadership in the food production industry,” said Patricia Woertz, Chairman, CEO and President. “To be recognized for excellence in the work we do to serve vital needs for food and energy speaks to the passion and commitment of our 29,000 employees.”
