# Building a Sustainable Future: PT Dharma Satya Nusantara Tbk and the 2025 LEOPARD Program
Established on September 29, 1980, PT Dharma Satya Nusantara Tbk (DSN) began its corporate journey as a prominent player in the timber industry after securing a Forest Concession Right (HPH) from the government. Over the past four decades, the company has leveraged its extensive industry experience and forged robust partnerships with local farmers, suppliers, and customers. This collaborative approach guarantees that all wood raw materials are fully traceable, responsibly sourced, and socially inclusive. By working hand-in-hand with over 3,600 independent farmers across Indonesia, DSN proudly secures a sustainable timber supply chain dedicated to manufacturing premium wood products.
As the global demand for vegetable oils—particularly palm oil and its downstream derivatives—witnessed an unprecedented surge, DSN executed a strategic business expansion into the palm oil sector. This calculated pivot successfully transformed the organization into a leading force within the sustainable palm oil industry. Today, the palm oil business segment serves as the primary financial engine of the enterprise, generating upwards of 80% of the company's total revenue.
