Navigating the EUDR: A Sweet Solution with Eskuad

Navigate EUDR compliance with Eskuad's platform, ensuring traceability, risk assessment, and streamlined reporting for sustainable supply chains.


The European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), set to fully come into effect, is poised to significantly reshape the way businesses operate, particularly those in the confectionery and food, forestry, and pulp and paper industries. A recent article on ConfectioneryNews.com highlighted the crucial implications of the EUDR for product labeling, emphasizing the need for robust traceability and due diligence. This is where Eskuad steps in, offering a powerful platform to help businesses navigate the complexities of the new regulation and ensure compliance.

The EUDR aims to prevent deforestation associated with products sold in the EU market. For the confectionery industry, as well as forestry and pulp and paper sectors, this means ensuring that ingredients like cocoa, palm oil, and sugar, along with timber and paper products, are sourced from land that has not been deforested after December 31, 2020. The ConfectioneryNews.com article stressed that this will necessitate significant changes in product labeling. Companies will need to provide clear and accurate information about the origin and sustainability of their ingredients, backed by verifiable data.

This presents a significant challenge for many businesses. Traditional supply chains can be complex and opaque, making it difficult to trace the origin of raw materials and ensure compliance with the EUDR's stringent requirements. Failure to comply can result in hefty fines and reputational damage.
