Once Again Teams with SedEx and HowGood
Nunda, NY – Once Again Nut Butter, a leader in ethical and sustainable business practices since 1976, is proud to announce its contracts with SedEx and HowGood. These third-party investments are designed to provide a deeper layer of visibility into Once Again’s Honest in Trade program, which focuses on environmental impact, social and supply chain justice and producing safe, quality foods.
SedEx, a leader in supply chain auditing, will provide Once Again’s customers with full traceability into its suppliers and supply chain sustainability performance, while also identifying, managing, and assessing social and environmental supply chain risks.
By leveraging HowGood’s database of 90,000 agricultural emissions factors, Once Again will obtain the carbon footprint for every product made, allowing them to report more easily on emissions, reduce their carbon footprint, and make verified sustainability claims.
Said Gael J. B. Orr, Once Again’s director of marketing. “For nearly 50 years, we’ve taken pride in producing products in the most ethical way possible and have been engaging in fair trade practices before certifications even existed. In 2018, for example, our team built a database that allows us to monitor our suppliers and develop internal score cards for each, ensuring social integrity is maintained throughout the supply chain. We also have a dedicated Green Team that monitors Once Again’s environmental impact and provides solutions to reduce our carbon footprint. By teaming with SedEx and HowGood, we are able to bring third party verification to these efforts, building on the trust we’ve established with our customers and stakeholders by providing assurance that we are indeed doing as we say we are.”
