EUDR & Traceability Workshop
Master EUDR — and every standard that opens the world's best markets
A half-day workshop for farmers, cooperatives and exporters on EUDR and the wider family of organic, ethical-sourcing and supply-chain standards that decide who reaches the world’s premium, single-origin markets. Organised by Commodity Plus with WEF Uganda and the Busoga Coffee & Cocoa Tourism Festival.
About this event
EUDR is here first, but it is one of a whole family of standards — organic, ethical-sourcing and supply-chain rules — that decide who reaches the world's premium, single-origin markets. This workshop covers them all, and shows you how to comply.
Everyone is talking about EUDR. It is one key. We hand you the whole set. Each of these regimes is a key to a premium, single-origin market that rewards farmers who can prove exactly where their crop comes from — and they all run on one thing: traceability. Know your farmers, map your plots, and keep records that trace every batch to its source.
The regimes we'll cover
- EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) — Regulation (EU) 2023/1115 (in force now)
- EU Organic — Regulation (EU) 2018/848
- Japan Organic (JAS) — Agricultural Standard for Organic
- USDA National Organic Program — 7 CFR Part 205
- EU Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) — Directive (EU) 2024/1760 (2027)
- EU Forced Labour Regulation — Regulation (EU) 2024/3015 (2027)
- EU Sustainability Reporting (CSRD / ESRS) — Directive (EU) 2022/2464
- France Devoir de Vigilance — Loi n° 2017-399
- Germany Supply Chain Act (LkSG) — Lieferkettensorgfaltspflichtengesetz
- Norway Transparency Act — Åpenhetsloven, and more as new rules arrive
What you'll walk away with
- Every regime in plain language — EUDR, organic and the ethical-sourcing rules — and which ones apply to you.
- How to map your farm and keep the records international buyers now ask for.
- How buyers actually check compliance — and how to pass the first time.
- How to prove compliance — the mapping, records and certificates that satisfy each standard.
- How to reach premium, single-origin buyers directly, and the tools that make it simple.
Who should come
Smallholder farmers, cooperatives, aggregators and exporters — coffee, cocoa, fresh fruit, sesame, vanilla and more. Bring a colleague.
The formal programme runs 10:00 to 13:00, and we'd love you to stay for an informal lunch and networking once we wrap. Seats are limited to 50.
Meet Commodity Plus
From your first farmer record to the buyer's payment, Commodity Plus runs every step of the export in one place — so compliance is built in, not bolted on: farmer and plot registry, farm mapping for EUDR, purchase records, wet-to-dry and yield checks, consignments and the buyer's DDS file, contracts in plain language, working capital backed by real trade, live global demand, and order and shipment tracking.
Organised by Commodity Plus in partnership with the Women's Environmental Forum (WEF Uganda) and the Busoga Coffee & Cocoa Tourism Festival. Questions: hello@commodity.plus.
