Supply Chain & EUDR Compliance
You sell products containing palm oil. Can you prove none of it came from deforested land?
The EU Deforestation Regulation requires verifiable proof — not supplier assurance letters — that every commodity in your supply chain is deforestation-free. With 80 suppliers and complex sourcing chains, the gap between what you're told and what's provable is where regulatory risk lives.
Reconstruction Timeline
EUDR due diligence initiated
80 suppliers asked for geolocation data of production plots
42 suppliers return incomplete data
Plantation coordinates missing or at mill level only
Satellite cross-check reveals gaps
11 supplier plots overlap with post-2020 deforestation zones
Market access deadline approaching
Prove compliance or pull products from EU market?
The Contradiction
One of these is wrong — and the longer it stays invisible, the more it costs.
What was reported
Suppliers signed sustainability pledges
RSPO certification in place
Procurement reports "compliant"
ESG rating stable
What actually happened
42 suppliers lack plot-level geolocation
11 plots in deforestation zones
Certification doesn't equal EUDR compliance
Traceability breaks at mill level
Commercial Impact
€960K product value at market access risk
11 supplier relationships require investigation
23 SKUs potentially affected
What would you do?
Without supply chain reconstruction
Supplier self-declarations and certifications accepted as proof
Traceability breaks invisible at processing/aggregation points
Compliance team reports "in progress" based on response rates
Market access risk discovered at enforcement, not preparation
With RippleXn
Every supplier's data chain reconstructed from plot to product
Data gaps identified, quantified, and prioritised by revenue exposure
Satellite cross-reference validates declared geolocation data
Due diligence file audit-ready before enforcement deadline
The invisible problem
The regulation that changes everything about sourcing
EUDR doesn't accept certifications, pledges, or supplier assurance letters as proof. It requires verifiable, plot-level geolocation data proving that every covered commodity was produced on land not deforested after December 31, 2020. If you can't prove it, you can't sell it in the EU.
80 suppliers — each with a different data quality reality
Certifications (RSPO, Fairtrade) do not equal EUDR compliance
Multi-tier supply chains break traceability at processing points
The penalty is not a fine — it is loss of EU market access
How we reconstruct your EUDR position
Map
80 suppliers categorised by commodity, origin, tier, and data readiness
Ingest
Shipping docs, mill records, certifications, GPS data, purchase receipts
Reconstruct
Plot-to-product chain rebuilt, showing where traceability holds and breaks
Verify
Cross-reference with satellite deforestation monitoring and customs records
File
EUDR due diligence statement with complete evidence chain per commodity
The commercial reality
The cost of losing EU market access
This is not a compliance fine. This is a market access gate. Every product containing palm oil, soy, cocoa, coffee, rubber, wood, or cattle-derived ingredients that cannot demonstrate deforestation-free sourcing cannot be sold in the EU. Full stop.
