Collect and Capture Primary Impact Data

The Sourcery Connect allows you to engage, collaborate and capture and verify primary commercial, social and environmental impact data in real-time and at scale.

As the digital nexus for the Direct-to-Grower Solution, the Connect App captures all impact and transaction data in line with the Impact and Assurance Programme Protocol and Modules. Once verified, select data (non-commercially sensitive) data is converted to digital non-fungible tokens (NFTs) called Bluechips that are then made available for licensed purchase via the forthcoming Sourcery Bluechip Exchange data marketplace (powered by our digital technology partner Bluenumber).

*Graphical representation ‘Bluechips’ that will be available for purchase in the Sourcery Bluechip Marketplace coming in early 2026. In the meantime, primary data can be purchased directly via Sourcery.

Bluechip Exchange - Features and Benefits

  • Sourcery Bluechips are digital assets (NFTs) that can contain farm level and supply chain impact data, transactional data (chain-of-custody data documents, images, etc.) that is collected and verified in real time via the Connect App.

  • Once the primary data collected via the Connect App is third-party verified and a corresponding transaction on fibre, yarn, fabric, and finished good has occurred, a Bluechip corresponding to the last and all prior transactions is made available for licensed purchase via the Bluechip Exchange data marketplace.

    The data contained in a Bluechip is only “unlocked” following the fabric transaction and in select cases finished good transaction transaction.

  • The Bluechips and the underlying data contained in each are owned and controlled by Sourcery Partners (growers, manufacturers, etc.) who remitted and originated the data.

    The Bluechips are safely and securely stored on the blockchain and only available under licensed purchase via the Bluechip Exchange.

  • Bluechips can also be created and made available to any government, trade authorities, financial institution via the Bluechip Exchange so they can receive full transparency, compliance disclosures against any shipment or vessel before import of fibre, yarn, fabric and finished goods.

  • Once licensed, the Bluechip Exchange can transfer primary farm, facility, or traceability (‘chain-of-custody data’) into any traceability service provider (Textile Genesis, FibreTrace, ReTraced, etc.) or enterprise resource planning (ERP) system or product lifecycle management (PLM) system or any approved third-party database via integration with the permission of the data subjects.

    *Integration development includes direct API or digital data bridge (Zapier). Additional integration costs may apply. Third-party platform require strict adherence to Sourcery data rights and ownership policies.

Lead and Own the Future

Data Ownership, Sovereignty and Equity.

Transforming Trade for Good, Together

Impact Partners

The data contained in each Bluechip is unprocessed (e.g. raw) data. As a commercially neutral trade intermediary and facilitors, Sourcery itself does not make value judgments, analysis, scoring or generate reports of the data contained in each Bluechips once licensed via the Bluechip Exchange.

Instead, Sourcery welcomes qualified Impact Partner organizations that include Impact Collaborator and Impact Assessor that include various multi-stakeholder organisations, standards and certifications as well as social, environmental, and climate professional impact assessment firms, governments, financial institutions, civil society, and select third-party verification bodies who are accredited to one or more preferred fibre programs, such as our Sourcery Assurance Partners, to interpret, analyze, score and report on the outcomes of the data directly to our Partners.

Impact Collaborators and Impact Assessors are invited to create their own Bluechips in Sourcery and capture critical farm level primary verified data that is needed to inform various measurement and evaluation (M&E) frameworks and standards that today generally do not rely on verified data that comes directly from each grower.

Through Sourcery and the Connect App--we welcome Impact Partners to ensure that each grower, manufacturers, trader and brand who are truly committed to transforming trade for good are recognised and rewarded for their excellence.
