Sustainability Analysis of Major South East Asia Palm Oil Supply Chains - EB0101
|
Description
SUSTAINABILITY ANALYSIS OF MAJOR SOUTH EAST ASIA PALM OIL SUPPLY CHAINS:
Working with a group of palm oil traders in that consitute 50% of the world's palm oil supply, to use supply chain analysis as a tool for promoting alignment with the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil 'Principles and Criteria' and for assessment of companies' 'land banks' (including for high conservation value land). This includes potential for 'land swaps' between existing concessions on high-carbon or high-biodiersity land and alternative land that is already degraded with lower conservation value.
OUTPUT:
A supply chain analysis toolkit using a case study of one leading trading company – designed to identify and address strategic issues relating to the sustainability of both companies' own plantations as well as their purchasing practices. This toolkit will be shared and proofed with other major companies already demonstrating interest.
