About
Global plant-based brand
A global plant-based food brand, founded in Europe in the early 90s, is committed to sustainability. With products available in over 20 countries, the company focuses on producing plant-based alternatives to traditional food products while promoting a plant-based diet to address global food resource challenges. They’ve chosen Worldfavor’s platform to digitize and automate their global sustainability activities, aligning with their mission.
Challenge
The company is a global plant-based food brand with a core business model grounded in sustainable practices. Understanding the company’s impact through sustainability data is a huge part of its communication to consumers and building its position as a leader in the plant-based transition. The company uses Worldfavor to collect data globally, enhance transparency, and provide valuable insights.
Solution
The company is currently using Worldfavor’s platform to collect data globally from all offices, production sites, and partners. Through one digital platform, it can automate customized data analyses, saving time and enabling easier insights for decision-making.
Result
Worldfavor’s platform enhances global staff engagement in sustainability, enabling interactive data visualization and real-time progress tracking. Tracking frameworks such as the SDGs and GRI provides valuable insights to support effective, high-impact decisions aligned with global efforts.
Challenges
The company has 11 offices worldwide and owns three production units. Beyond its internal operations, it works with about twenty external partners. To comprehensively understand and minimize its negative impact, its offices and partners need to measure and report sustainability data. Before implementing Worldfavor, the company managed sustainability data manually using Excel sheets, leading to significant administrative burdens. As a rapidly growing company, this approach became increasingly inefficient and time-consuming. This meant finding a system that:
Digitalized data collection globally
Simplified quality control of the data
This is in order to make data-driven, sustainable decisions
Solution
The company is currently using Worldfavor’s platform to enable automated customized analyses from the data collection and reduce manual effort. Since sustainability is part of its core business model, understanding its impact through sustainability data is a huge part of its communication to consumers and building its position as a leader in the plant-based transition. By being able to collect data globally from all offices, production sites, and partners through one digital platform, the company achieves:
More high-quality ESG data offering valuable insights and increased transparency as a basis for sustainable decision-making
Automation within the platform enables quicker and easier data analysis, saving the Sustainability Controller time and improving accessibility for non-technical staff
Result
The Sustainability Controller expects to use Worldfavor’s dashboard to enhance global staff engagement in the company’s sustainability initiatives. The interactive dashboard directly enables immediate insight into which areas are most correlated with the company’s line of work. This helps the organization spend time and energy making effective, positive, high-impact decisions in line with global efforts. By implementing Worldfavor’s platform globally, the company can:
Make data collection more accurate and effective, which encourages users to report data
Get hands-on information to inform better decision-making, take action, and track year-on-year progress
Digitize global data collection, streamline quality control processes, and improve response rates
Align with key initiatives such as the SDGs and GRI
This level of insight supports the company’s core business model, facilitating its vision of a more sustainable world while thriving in its operations.
