Besides the Italian chains, the commitment guaranteeing the origin and traceability of raw materials also concerns the foreign ones, and is strengthened by belonging to different certification and protocol standards, for example U.S. Soy Sustainability Assurance Protocol, Donau Soy, Europe Soy, Proterra, Vlog, GMP+. Moreover, in 2019, as the first European company to take this course, Cereal Docks was certified RTRS, Round Table for Responsible Soy.
The standard guarantees that the soy seeds coming from South America are from areas that are not deforested, where good farm practices and fair working conditions are applied. Thanks to its RTRS certification, Cereal Docks can supply customers with flours, oils and lectins from foreign soy seeds obtained through responsible practices, with no deforesting or wild impoverishment of natural resources nor violation of human rights.
Our commitment, besides the answer to emerging requests: the spirit with which Cereal Docks approaches management of foreign supply chains is to anticipate market requests and look forward, qualifying itself as a reference for its customers, to whom it offers safe, quality products, the guarantee of supply continuity and all the elements to help them face the market in the best way possible.
The ability to work dynamically on procurement geographies is a Group strong point; in a case of critical issues from geopolitical imbalances or health crises it guarantees a prompt reaction, counting on strong procurement area diversification, a solid logistics system, connecting all Group facilities and adopting a multi-modal approach integrating rod, rail and water transport; and, last but not least, a remarkable storage capacity so that the company has strategic resources available to it.
