WHO WE ARE
Trade in Space believe in enabling agricultural supply chains to be more ethical, sustainable and accessible using the most innovative space and blockchain technologies. We work with our clients to help them achieve the corporate sustainability policies.
We monitor deforestation, land use change, carbon and climate change which is important to the production and trade of coffee and cacao and other commodities. Our tools are modular, meaning we create bespoke solutions to provide our clients with the information they need to manage sustainability in their supply chains. By generating transactional intelligence for the supply chain we reduce friction in global trade and certify the sustainability of agriculture, and help our clients meet their commitments to the EU Deforestation Regulation.
