Be Ready for EUDR – Why Waiting Isn’t an Option

The #EUDR is back in the headlines – with strong calls for a postponement of the regulation. Many businesses worry about complexity and additional burden. But right now the clock is ticking and the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) comes into force soon — and companies that are not prepared risk losing access to the EU market.

EUDR is not just another compliance box to tick. It requires every company importing or trading affected goods to prove, with data, that their supply chains are deforestation-free. That means engaging suppliers across the globe, tracing products through complex chains, and submitting due diligence statements that regulators can verify.

In our new episode of Impact Pays Off, Georg Fischer, Team Lead of the Rollout Team and Product Expert at osapiens, explains why the deadline is closer than most companies think, why manual risk analysis will never be enough, and how automation in the osapiens HUB helps businesses get compliant on time. 

He shares what leading retailers are already doing today — and what every Chief Sustainability Officer should put on their immediate to-do list.

If you’re still asking yourself “where do we even start?”, this conversation will give you clarity — and a sense of urgency.
