In a world where transparency, sustainability, and compliance have become fundamental pillars for the future of our planet, two innovative leaders, OFC and Carbify, announce a strategic alliance that promises to transform the way we produce, consume, and understand our food.
OFC, a pioneer in food traceability using public blockchain technology, and Carbify, a specialist in afforestation and blockchain-based carbon offset solutions, are joining forces to create an integrated ecosystem that combines supply chain transparency, effective carbon footprint reduction, and adherence to global compliance standards such as the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). This collaboration will not only benefit producers and companies but will also empower consumers to make more informed and responsible decisions.
In addition, Carbify has played a key role in collaborating with OFC to partner with other parties and open new opportunities. These interactions will enable OFC to expand its reach and efficiency, as well as improve traceability, transparency, and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) performance in the food supply chain.
As part of this expansion, OFC and Carbify are exploring ways to support farmers by fostering collaboration with OFC partners. This includes identifying opportunities in key agricultural sectors, such as cacao and fruits, where collective efforts can drive sustainability, compliance, and economic growth for farming communities.
OFC’s blockchain ensures full transparency in tracing food origins. With Carbify, consumers can also assess the environmental impact of products from production to consumption. This helps companies showcase their commitment to sustainability, ESG principles, and regulations like EUDR, while empowering consumers to make eco-friendly choices. Carbify is also exploring how to automatically offset supply chain emissions through tree planting or carbon credits.
Farmers and producers who adopt environmentally friendly methods, such as regenerative agriculture, can be rewarded through carbon credits managed by Carbify. This approach not only promotes the adoption of sustainable practices but also generates a positive economic impact for producers. OFC increases the value of the registered sustainable impact of Carbify beyond farm-gate, opening opportunities for off-setting in the supply chain while ensuring compliance with global standards.
This partnership is not limited to carbon offsetting; OFC and Carbify aim to achieve real emissions reductions across supply chains. By combining traceability with sustainability solutions and compliance frameworks, OFC and Carbify are laying the foundations for a more resilient, responsible, and legally compliant food system.
Both companies are committed to leading educational initiatives that inform consumers about the importance of traceability, carbon offsetting, and ESG principles. The goal is to create a global community that is aware of the impact of their decisions and committed to fighting climate change while supporting compliant and sustainable supply chains.
The union of OFC and Carbify marks a before and after in the food industry. This collaboration not only responds to current demands for transparency, sustainability, and compliance but also drives innovation and commitment to more measurable and impactful results.
As part of our commitment to transparency and engagement, we are excited to announce that we will publish a detailed case report on one of two critical supply chains: chocolate/cacao or juice/fruits. We want to hear from you! Cast your vote to decide which case we should explore first. Your voice will help shape our focus and ensure we address the topics that matter most to you.
In Our Own Words:
“This groundbreaking partnership marks a transformative leap forward in redefining the global food system, one that champions unparalleled transparency, unwavering environmental stewardship, and a profound commitment to the wellbeing of generations to come. Together, we are not just envisioning but actively forging a future where every bite resonates with purpose, nourishing both people and the planet. This is more than a collaboration; it is a movement to create a legacy of sustainability, resilience, equity, and compliance, ensuring that the food we cultivate today becomes a cornerstone for a thriving, regenerative tomorrow.”
The future of food is here, and it’s transparent, sustainable, compliant, and responsible. OFC and Carbify are making it possible.
