Why This Webinar Matters
Traceability is no longer a “nice-to-have.” With the current uncertainty around the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), supply chain transparency has become essential. This webinar brings together industry leaders, innovators, and policymakers to explore how traceability can move beyond compliance to become a driver of sustainability, value creation, and trust in the cocoa industry.
Join Cordillera Chocolate and CocoaRadar to discover how origin-based systems in Colombia are revolutionising cocoa supply chains and what this means for the global chocolate industry.
