Gen10 and Intertek collaborate on Cocoa Sustainability in Africa

22 February 2017

London, UK, 22nd February, 2017: Intertek, a leading quality solutions provider to industries worldwide and Gen10, a provider of cloud-based traceability and risk management solutions, are pleased to announce their new farm sustainability audit and analytics platform. This progressive web application addresses the challenging issue of data collection and access in often remote cocoa producing regions to help streamline the survey process of Intertek’s sustainability program. End-users both up and downstream will gain access to trends, insights and benchmarks based on data collected and analysed. Intertek will be putting several years’ historical data of farm sustainability on Generation 10’s Supply Chain Map in order to help their clients validate their responsible sourcing initiatives via the interactive platform. Modules will be rolled out in the course of the next 6 months, starting with a pilot in West Africa, where their agents will take this platform out to the farms.
