Bangkok Produce Merchandising and Louis Dreyfus Company Ink Collaboration to Utilize Satellite Mapping Solutions for Soy Traceability

Bangkok, Thailand: Bangkok Produce Merchandising Public Company Limited (BKP), a subsidiary of Charoen Pokphand Foods Public Company Limited (CPF), and Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC), a leading global merchant and processor of agricultural goods, have signed an MOU to collaborate on the utilization of satellite mapping solutions and traceability data points for sustainable and deforestation-free supply chains.

Bangkok Produce Merchandising and LDC are committed to a common goal of a deforestation-free supply chain by 2025. The two companies will work together for commercial, sustainable, and technical efforts, including shared traceability data points, systems, and satellite mapping verification along their supply chains.

We are working with global leading companies to leverage our capabilities in accelerating traceable sourcing, processing, operation, and commitment toward CPF's Net-Zero goal by 2050.
