WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY

The Sustainable Trade Platform has been instrumental in developing our projects. The support it provided has enabled us to enhance the process affecting change amongst producers and develop methods of work that clients perceive as added value.

Angela María Peláez M.

Sustainability Director, Expocafé S.A.
For the Ministry of Foreign Trade of the Netherlands, one of the priorities of our work is to achieve sustainable value chains for primary goods. Sustainable products traditionally have been seen as a luxury for a specific niche market. For this reason, the Embassy of the Netherlands has supported the establishment of the Sustainable Trade Platform.

Martha Arévalo

Administrative Officer, Development Cooperation and Economic Affairs, Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands
Thanks to the Sustainable Trade Platform, we have been able to share a mutual space with companies currently interested in taking on the challenges of sustainability. This is more than an advantage and represents a great opportunity for us.

Miguel Tejada

Director of Economic Studies, Agrobiz
It has been a great pleasure to work with the Sustainable Trade Platform. We have seen changes in our staff and technical team. This is a result of the tools they have shared with us and their online courses we've taken.

Jorge Andrés Gómez A.

Office of Sustainability, SKN Caribecafé
I had the opportunity to attend a workshop on change management led by the Sustainable Trade Platform. I was then able to incorporate these new skills and knowledge in the programs offered by the Cooperative of Salgar in Antioquia.
