En XX nos propusimos llegar a ser "la empresa líder mundial en productos, servicios y conocimientos de la cadena agroalimentaria, orientada hacia el desarrollo y bienestar de las personas y su entorno".
My draft translation: At XX, we had set out to become “the global leading company in the provision of goods, services and ¿¿knowledge/ expertise?? on the agrifood network geared towards the development and wellbeing of individuals and their environment"
No me parece que esté bien "provision of knowlege or expertise", no?

This seems to fit better. Although I'd normally use "expertise", and I think that is what is meant, in this context, "information" sounds more idiomatic.

Expertise sounds just right to me. Also, I would say "the leading global provider of goods, services, etc".
