How Cocoa Companies Can Operationalize Supplier Evidence, Geospatial Assessment, Production Traceability, and TRACES Submission
Editor's Note: A geolocation pin and a supplier declaration used to be enough to call a shipment "EUDR-ready." What regulators and buyers actually want to see now is not just information on who produced or supplied the product and where it was grown, but also whether the plot was legally producing before the applicable cutoff date, how the risk was assessed, and whether the paperwork lines up cleanly enough to survive an audit. Most sourcing teams in cocoa, coffee, palm oil,

That assumption is worth challenging, because it's incomplete in a way that costs money. The stage where most food loss actually happens, harvest to retail, not the farm itself, is also the stage where traceability records most often break down. A geotagged plot doesn't stay complia
