Like you, we have been watching as the COVID-19 global pandemic unfolds around the world. We don’t know the impact this situation will ultimately have, but we do know that we need to do what we can to keep the food supply moving during this critical time.

While we believe we have a responsibility to help meet food demand, we are committed to taking necessary steps to protect our employees. By safeguarding our employees, we can secure our supply chain.

Some of the protocols we’ve instituted focused on employee safety include:

• Our corporate offices are open to essential staff, but closed to the public, and are evaluated weekly to maintain strict safety protocols. All non-essential employees are working remotely in accordance with government guidance for social distancing.
• All international travel and all non-critical domestic business travel has been suspended since February 28, 2020.
• We are preventing visitors to our manufacturing sites and restricting any non-business-critical activity involving non-Lamb Weston employees.
• We’ve increased sanitation practices at all locations and are encouraging sound hygiene behaviors based on CDC recommendations with all employees to prevent the spread of the virus.

Our people make this company great. Our employees around the globe are working hard to sustain us and prepare for growth in the future.

We will continue to act in the best interest of our employees and our business partners.
