Green Project Technologies has announced a strategic partnership with HowGood aimed at improving supply chain transparency and Scope 3 emissions reporting across both food and non-food categories. The collaboration brings together Green Project’s supply chain decarbonisation platform with HowGood’s enterprise carbon footprinting capabilities and extensive food sustainability database.
The companies state that the partnership is designed to help organisations accelerate supplier engagement, improve data quality and make progress toward net zero targets. The joint offer is intended for businesses operating across food and beverage, hospitality, grocery retail and other sectors managing mixed supplier bases.
Under the agreement, HowGood will lead supplier engagement for food and beverage suppliers. Using its Carbon Trust-certified footprinting methodology, the company will generate supplier-specific product carbon footprints at scale. This approach is expected to provide more granular data for ingredients and agricultural inputs, which often account for a significant share of corporate emissions.
Green Project Technologies will extend supplier engagement and emissions measurement across the remaining areas of the value chain. This includes packaging, logistics, operations and services, supporting companies in addressing emissions beyond agricultural sourcing.
The combined solution is structured to provide visibility from farm inputs and ingredients through to packaging and transport. By integrating food and non-food data streams, the companies state that organisations will be able to strengthen Scope 3 reporting with higher-quality primary data and improve audit readiness.
Scope 3 emissions, which cover indirect emissions across a company’s value chain, are drawing increased attention from regulators and investors. In many food-related sectors, emissions linked to ingredients and agricultural production represent a substantial proportion of total carbon footprints. However, collecting accurate supplier-level data remains a challenge for many procurement and sustainability teams.
Sam Stark, Founder and CEO at Green Project Technologies, said: “Supplier engagement is where decarbonization happens. Together with HowGood, we support a more comprehensive approach enabling procurement and sustainability teams to prioritize the right suppliers, deploy engagement workflows that match supplier needs and streamline data collection and reporting, while ensuring suppliers only see what is relevant and actionable for them.”
Alexander Gillet, CEO at HowGood, commented: “As expectations for Scope 3 disclosure and reduction intensify, organizations must address the reality that food ingredients often represent a significant percentage of their carbon footprint—yet remain the most complex and difficult variables to accurately measure. By combining our farm-level footprinting with Green Project’s expanded reach to non-agricultural commodities, we can help companies with diverse supply systems move beyond estimates and truly tackle reduction.”
The partners state that the platform will help customers identify which suppliers, materials and processes present the greatest opportunities for emissions reduction. Suppliers of different sizes will be able to participate using no-cost tools, supported by training and guidance intended to build internal capability.
Improving the quality of primary supplier data is a key focus of the collaboration. Many organisations continue to rely on industry averages or secondary datasets for Scope 3 reporting. By contrast, supplier-specific product footprints can provide a clearer picture of emissions hotspots and support more targeted reduction strategies.
The integrated model is also designed to reduce the administrative burden associated with emissions reporting. By aligning supplier engagement, data collection and reporting workflows, the companies aim to reduce manual effort while strengthening the credibility of reported figures.
The partnership reflects broader market trends as companies respond to tightening disclosure requirements and rising stakeholder scrutiny. As regulatory frameworks and voluntary standards continue to evolve, access to reliable, defensible emissions data is becoming central to corporate climate strategies.
By combining agricultural footprinting with non-agricultural supply chain coverage, Green Project Technologies and HowGood are positioning their joint offer to address the full spectrum of Scope 3 emissions across mixed supplier networks. The companies state that the approach is intended to support organisations seeking more accurate reporting and measurable progress toward net zero commitments.
