Co-organised by 4C and VICOFA, the event brought together coffee and cocoa participants to discuss value, compliance and greener growth.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"section-1\">A discussion on biodiversity and regenerative agriculture<\/h2>\n<p>Thai Nhu Hiep joined the panel on biodiversity and regenerative agriculture with representatives of Louis Dreyfus, Nestl\u00e9 Vietnam and KDP Coffee.

Traceability, environmental responsibility and the evidence behind a practice were part of the context for the discussion.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"section-2\">Broader subjects affecting supply chains<\/h2>\n<p>The conference also addressed EUDR, consumer-facing environmental claims, the German supply-chain due-diligence framework, emissions and human-rights due diligence. These were conference topics; the event itself did not certify participants&#8217; products against all the requirements discussed.<\/p>\n<p>For companies, the practical challenge is to connect policy and customer requirements with reliable operational information. The discussion reinforced the importance of knowing which product, period and activity a record describes.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"section-3\">L\u2019amant Caf\u00e9 in the networking area<\/h2>\n<p>L\u2019amant Caf\u00e9 served coffee to partners at the event, including products developed from Vietnamese raw material and Fine Robusta from Gia Lai.
