PACKAGING

TRACEABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY

The way the market and supply chain are organiued does not allow to face the following challenges:

To avoid the viscissitudes of external factors: climate, fluctating prices and uncertainty of the market; To ensure an improved stability of supply and to give visibility for the future in order to anticipate (producers and processors); To master the value chain through a better knowledge of the production uptstream, suppliers and through a balaced power relationship; To answer to the expectation of transparency and traceability of stakeholders, and on the social and environemental condition of the production, on the remuneration and impact

• n the life of farmers

To valorise the commitment and practices, to develop sustainable, resilient supply chain.

Solution?

TO SECURE THE SUPPLY – STRUCTURATION OF THE SUPPLY CHAIN?

The solution : building up resilient organic supply chain - One tool: Fair for Life

1991 – Setting up ECOCERT in France 2007- ECOCERT launched its fair trade standard ESR 1989 – Setting up of IMO in Switzerland 2006 - IMO launched its fair trade standard– Fair for Life

2014 – IMO taken over by ECOCERT
