Organized as part of Altruistiq annual State of Sustainability event, this session provided the opportunity to discuss the importance of product carbon footprint data collection and exchange for sustainable product redesign. Attended by sustainability professionals from the Food and Beverage industry, some key insights included:

• Asking practical, data-focused questions enhances supplier engagement and ensures meaningful dialogue.
• Sharing insights internally and with suppliers accelerates buy-in and fosters strategic alignment.
• Peer benchmarking and peer-to-peer discussions are essential for companies looking to identify best practices and set ambitious, achievable, decarbonization plans.
• Sustainability needs to be communicated as a strategic value, shifting it from being perceived as a mere cost.
• Building trust is crucial in supply chain interactions, acting as a valuable currency and a potential point of loss if not carefully managed.
