Preparing for the EU Deforestation Regulation: Using the Delay as a Business Advantage

What is Supply Chain Transparency?

Supply Chain Transparency refers to the extent to which a company discloses information regarding the practices, partners, policies, and origins within its supply chain. This concept is fundamental to building trust with consumers, investors, and other stakeholders by allowing them to see the ethical and environmental impacts of the supply chain operations.

For supply chain traceability companies, achieving transparency means providing accessible, accurate, and timely information about the source, manufacturing conditions, and journey of products. This includes details on labour practices, environmental management, and corporate governance.
