NEWS FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE October 2025 99 Bunge and Bangkok Produce Merchandising Public Company Limited, a subsidiary of Charoen Pokphand Group (CP Group), signed a Memorandum of Understanding for a strategic partnership that marks an unprecedented advance in agricultural commodity supply chain transparency. Following successful testing of a blockchain platform for soy traceability, the companies will adopt this solution for soy and soy meal originated by Bunge in Brazil and supplied to Bangkok Produce Merchandising (BKP) and Charoen Pokphand Foods (CPF) for food and animal feed production in Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries. The companies also plan to develop innovative solutions for system integration to enhance visibility and transparency across agricultural commodity supply chains, as well as collaborating on low-carbon initiatives with supply chain-wide impact. This is reportedly in line with CP Group's ambition to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and leveraging Bunge's experience in leading regenerative agriculture initiatives. Since 2023, Bunge and CP have collaborated on technical, operational, and commercial feasibility studies for sustainable and digitally integrated supply chains. In 2024, the partnership validated traceability in a pilot involving a shipment of approximately 375,000 metric tons of soy meal. With the current agreement, the solution will be adopted at scale.
