Impact Services for Corporates

How can we help?

WECONNEX works with businesses to advance responsible and inclusive practices and increase lasting impact. We create sustainable concepts for markets with less developed infrastructure. As a pioneer, we use the experience from our own NEXUS projects to support other organizations on their path to responsible value chains and business practices.

 

Along value chains

Sustainability pays off for all actors

We identify potential, develop solutions and implement them on site: WECONNEX is specialised in the development and coordination of ecosystems along value chains - from the producer (farmer, fisher or forester) to the consumer. We see sustainability as a core element of each business strategy. We aim at fair, entrepreneurial and sustainable cooperation of all involved actors.

Competences

Areas of expertise

 

Sourcing

Your challenge: Fluctuations in quality and quantity regularly present us with challenges.

We unlock potential in local production and find the balance between quantities, quality and sustainability. We increase local efficiency, support adaptation to climate change or the use of modern technology and methods. We develop new sourcing markets or partners.

Added Value

Your challenge: Increasing pressure on margins forces us to examine alternative procurement channels or models.

We optimize value chains, develop direct channels and innovate sourcing and business models. This includes the identification and evaluation of local partners. We increase efficiency and effectiveness along the value chain through the use of new technologies.

 

Responsibility

Your challenge: As a company we want to assume responsibility to move towards more sustainable business.

We support you with certifications, securing, testing and implementing regulations. We help you to improve local impact through a better local embeddedness – with advantages for business and image (CSR)​. We manage projects and offer guidance in reporting with regard to new regulations and rules.

Marketing

Your challenge: We want to use our commitment as a sales argument and thus positively influence our image.

We support you in controlling & reporting of your impact​ as a basis for communication. We develop and manage alliances and partnerships (e.g. WWF, Fairtrade, etc.) and lend a hand in the creation of communication material.
