GLOBALG.A.P. at Sedex: the power of collaboration to drive sustainability

The recent XPLORE Sustainability conference hosted by Sedexin London was a chance for supply chain stakeholders to share insights and solutions to the latest challenges in the sustainability landscape. It was also an excellent opportunity for attendees to make connections and learn more about the Sedex sustainability platform. “Bringing together all the cross-sectorial sustainability experts was a unique opportunity to exchange experiences and knowledge that will support us in our ‘path to sustainability’,” said GLOBALG.A.P.’s Social Compliance Expert Alexandre Garcia-Devis Flores, who attended the conference.

GLOBALG.A.P. was pleased to contribute to the conversation at this year’s conference and demonstrate our commitment to working together with industry stakeholders to drive sustainability in agriculture, which is a major player in the global supply chain. On day two of the conference, Managing Director Dr Kristian Moeller joined Luis Bueno, Group Director of Employment Equity and Social Impact at the Compass Group, in a session to discuss how collaboration between competitors and across regions and industries benefits our common goal of supply chain sustainability. 

Key takeaway: Collaboration isn’t anti-competitive, it’s a business advantage when the outcome is sustainability.
