Grupo Minorista de Soja

¿De qué se trata?

The Retail Soy Group (RSG) is an independent group of international retailers who work collaboratively to find industry-wide solutions to sourcing sustainable soy for their animal feed and human food supply chains, and therefore includes soy used in feed in both livestock and aquaculture supply chains.

The RSG was formed in 2013 to address a sector-wide gap in addressing the demand for sustainability-produced soya. The group is facilitated by sustainable commodity experts 3Keel Group Ltd.

Se centra en:

• Identificar y apoyar a los proveedores limpios;
• Aplicación de enfoques regionales para abordar soluciones a nivel biológico;
• Aumentar la credibilidad de las normas de certificación,
• Desbloquear las cadenas de suministro.

The RSG and its members also advocate on multiple issues, including those concerning deforestation-free supply chains and protection of the Amazon, as well as other issues such as the use of hazardous pesticides in soy production.

The RSG also provides a range of guidance materials, including:  

• Guidance on metrics and a methodology for public disclosure on the use of soy within a retail supply chain
• Guidance on principles for achieving deforestation-free strategies
• Comprehensive e-learning modules on responsible soy sourcing from managing risk to communicating action.
