Commitments & Achievements

In only four years, the SSCI has become the benchmark of choice for sustainability compliance standards in the consumer goods industry, supporting organisations in their supply chain due diligence by driving trust in and continuous improvement among standards.

With the SSCI Benchmark Criteria, developed for the industry, by the industry, the SSCI provides guidance on the industry’s minimum expectations for how sustainability should be defined and covered by supply chain sustainability certifications and audits, as well as how those certifications should be operated. In doing so, the SSCI is helping create an industry-wide common foundation for how supply chain sustainability is evaluated.
