The industry-specific challenges in potato trade
These challenges sound familiar?
Potato trade sits between agricultural production, storage, processing, transport and the food industry. This brings together complex flows of goods and supply chains with rising demands for sustainability, transparency and reporting.
Grocery retail drives SBTi climate targets, EcoVadis ratings, ESG data requirements and PPWR requirements across the industry. You are expected to meet targets whose underlying conditions you can only partly control yourself. This is especially true for packaging. What matters is robust data and clear evidence, even when you do not control every lever.
From raw-material collectors and traders to storage, processing and packing, as well as peelers, processors and other value-added specialists: The potato trade is diverse. What works for one company may fall short for the next. Sustainability topics, data and measures must therefore fit your business model.
Extreme weather and changing growing conditions directly affect yields, quality, size and storage life. This impacts raw material availability, procurement and ability to supply. Climate risks are therefore no abstract metric. They affect purchasing, planning and customer relationships.
Storage, cooling and ventilation, preparation and processing require energy and, in some cases, water. This is compounded by the transportation of large volumes of goods. In the potato industry, the product moving through the entire value chain consists of around 80% water. Every process counts.
Potatoes and onions remain sensitive natural products after harvesting. Storage duration, sprouting, pressure damage, rot, sorting and preparation determine how much remains marketable. At the same time, residues, product safety and traceability matter. Sustainability is reflected not only in reporting, but also in how every product is handled.
