~70% of global cocoa comes from climate-vulnerable regions, exposing supply to risk. Record prices near US$12,000/ton signal fragility. The sector is shifting toward traceability, climate resilience, and compliance to stay competitive.

Ecuador is emerging as a key global cocoa hub, with output projected at 650,000 tonnes by 2026/2027. Amid US$12,000/ton prices and supply constraints, growth hinges on traceability, farmer support, and compliance with evolving global regulations.

40% of Indonesia’s palm oil land is managed by smallholders, yet most remain untraceable (Mongabay, 2023). With the EUDR 2025 deadline nearing, Koltiva helps smallholders meet RSPO/ISPO standards and ensure transparency.

KOLTIVA has appointed Joe Keen Poon as Executive Chairman, marking a strategic milestone in its global leadership in sustainable agriculture and supply chain traceability.

The EUDR, delayed to 2025, mandates deforestation-free supply chains. Luca Fischer sees both challenges and opportunities. KoltiTrace aids compliance with real-time monitoring, while on-site verification ensures genuine sustainability.

The discussions emphasized the importance of meeting anti-deforestation requirements and ensuring smallholders are not excluded from the supply chain, maintaining inclusivity and market access while meeting international sustainability standards

Latin America is responsible for 44% of global tropical deforestation, intensifying the need to align supply chains with deforestation-free standards to maintain EU trade access.
