We build software that helps companies along the food system get to Net Zero.
31 of global GHG emissions originate from foodrelated activities. For the first time in history climate performance has become an overall business performance indicator. Enterprises are mandated by regulatory bodies to disclose their climate performance which leads to increasing pressure from investors competitors retailers and consumers to prevent and reduce their CO2e emissions. Over the next 10 years companies have set ambitious reduction targets that need to be met. Enterprise software and new business processes can help.
