Food & Beverage

Building agri-food supply chains that are resilient, regenerative, profitable and respectful of human rights.

Rising to the challenges of living systems

The agri-food sector depends on climate, soil, water and biodiversity, and most of its impacts occur upstream. Your challenges include unstable yields, vulnerable sourcing regions and producers, a wide diversity of farming and livestock practices, competing land uses, and the need to balance food security, quality and price.

Amid climate uncertainty, market volatility and supply pressures, we help you shape your ecological and social transition strategy, transform agricultural practices across your supply chain and build more resilient sectors, while taking your operational constraints into account.

Key supply chains:

From farm to global markets

Transitions supports players across local and international agricultural supply chains, from upstream to downstream: brands, suppliers, producers, industry bodies, cooperatives and retailers.

Our goal: to balance economic performance, impact management and product quality.

Our expertise:

Implementing sustainable practices and measuring their performance

We combine complementary expertise in agricultural engineering, procurement and operations, law, deforestation, climate, biodiversity, human rights and animal welfare.

As part of the Ecocert Group, we draw on extensive experience in sustainability certification, labelling and regulation, as well as a network of auditors in nearly 130 countries.

Responsible sourcing Build robust due diligence systems (HRDD, EUDR, CSDDD) and roll out ambitious sustainable sourcing policies, from supplier support to on-the-ground projects, in consultation with civil society.
Agricultural practices (regenerative agriculture and human rights) Define a tailored agroecological and social framework, deploy action plans across your value chain with suppliers and producers on the ground, measure and verify the impact.
Tailored audit programmes Design and implement private or sector-wide audit schemes, remote or on-site, to reduce risks and drive the transformation of practices.
Forest, carbon and biodiversity footprint Measure and reduce the environmental impact of your sourcing (Scope 3) through sector-specific Zero Deforestation, SBTi and SBTN action plans.

You bring the ambition. We bring the expertise.
