Building a Sustainable Supply Chain: Greening Your Vendor Network
S
Statura Team
For most businesses, the largest environmental and social impacts — and risks — sit not in their own operations but in their supply chain. A sustainable supply chain is now a competitive and compliance necessity.
Why It Matters
- Scope 3 emissions (suppliers, logistics) usually dominate the carbon footprint.
- Buyers and regulators increasingly demand responsible sourcing.
- Supply-chain risks (labour, environment) become reputational risks.
How to Start
- Map and segment suppliers by spend and risk.
- Set a supplier code of conduct.
- Assess key suppliers on environmental and labour criteria.
- Engage and support suppliers to improve — not just audit them.
Statura helps build responsible sourcing and Scope 3 measurement into your ESG strategy.
