The next company of the week is Dole Food. From the snapshot:

"Dole Food Company, Inc. is the world's largest producer of fruits and vegetables such as bananas and pineapples, and also produces cut flowersand nuts. Dole has a history of operating plantations in the US across the globe, often creating poor working conditions and unsafeenvironmental conditions such as pesticide use, soil erosion anddeforestation."

A lot of great research has been done by many nonprofit and publicinterest groups on Dole, so I am sure lots of interesting things willturn up this week.
