ECOM

ECOM holds certifications from premier sustainability organizations, such as the Rainforest Alliance and Fairtrade — and traceability is key to achieving these milestones.

Investing in digital supply chain solutions including Sourcemap helped ECOM gain access to suppliers and local stakeholders everywhere they had a presence, which led to better insights and a more resilient business strategy.

The Hershey Company

As part of their Cocoa For Good initiative, we worked closely with The Hershey Company to build a comprehensive map of all their certified cocoa farms.

This strategy enabled the chocolate company to create a deforestation baseline, a valuable tool for measuring tree cover loss at or near their suppliers' areas of operation.

The ultimate goal of this project is to more effectively prevent deforestation by mapping polygons GPS coordinates to all of Hershey's Cote d'Ivoire and Ghana West Africa cocoa farms, which the organization aims to complete by 2025.

FAQs

  • People have been mapping supply chains as long as they’ve been making maps. But traditional maps only provide a summary view - they don't show how supply chains change in real time. Modern supply chain mapping is the process of engaging across companies and suppliers to document the exact source of every material, every process and every shipment involved in bringing goods to market. Accurate supply chain mapping only became possible with the rise of online maps and the social web. The first online supply chain mapping platform was developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2008 (the underlying open source technology is the basis for Sourcemap). Read More

  • The concept of supply chain transparency was virtually unknown 15 years ago, yet today it commands the attention of mid- and senior-level managers across a broad spectrum of companies and industries.

    The reasons for this increased interest are clear: Companies are under pressure from governments, consumers, NGOs, and other stakeholders to divulge more information about their supply chains, and the reputational cost of failing to meet these demands can be high. For example, food companies are facing more demand for supply-chain-related information about ingredients, food fraud, animal welfare, and child labor. Less clear, however, is how to define transparency in a supply chain context and the extent to which companies should pursue it: an MIT study that mapped definitions of supply chain transparency related to labor practices in the apparel industry found vastly different definitions across organizations.

  • Companies are under increased pressure from governments and regulators to ensure that their products are compliant with human rights and environmental standards. The only way for companies to ensure their supply chains are "clean" is by mapping their supply chains down the raw materials using auditable, verifiable data.
