James Cropper has chosen Osapiens to ensure compliance with the evolving requirements of the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).
The company has committed to achieving operational carbon neutrality by 2030 and net-zero emissions across its supply chain by 2050. In parallel, it is strengthening its approach to responsible sourcing and regulatory alignment, actively monitoring the EU Green Deal and addressing the complex demands of the EUDR.
The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) introduces strict due diligence requirements on companies placing forest-based products on the EU market. With the release of its FAQ Version 4 in April 2025, the regulation now places even greater emphasis on detailed traceability, requiring precise geolocation data for multi-country sourcing and product-level information covering the last five years. These demands pose significant challenges in terms of the complexity and volume of data companies must manage.
To navigate these evolving requirements with greater efficiency and accuracy, James Cropper has adopted the osapiens HUB for EUDR. This unified, cloud-based platform automates key compliance processes, including geospatial data collection, legal and risk assessments, batch and composite product tracking, and the preparation and direct submission of Due Diligence Statements (DDS). By reducing manual workload and ensuring audit-ready documentation, the solution enables reliable and scalable compliance. The system’s robust support for traceability across diverse plots and international sourcing networks further enhances transparency throughout the company’s global operations and supply chain. This strategic collaboration with osapiens further strengthens James Cropper’s continued commitment to long-term sustainability.
