Direct-to-Grower™ Solution combines human intuition with advanced digital technology to ensure our Partners can accelerate the transformation of trade for good.
All growers
Everywhere
Sourcery is inclusive of all growers, everywhere (manufacturers, traders and brands too!). We support our Partners to trade and transact fibre, yarn and fabric under Better Cotton, organic, regenerative, Regen Agri, US Trust Protocol, conventional (‘unaffiliated’), among others.
Transparent Trade
Sourcing and digital trade solution that enables more transparency, efficiency and trust in trade when transacting fibre, yarn and fabric.
Using the power of digital trade, Partners can effortlessly remit and receive spot and forward enquiries, offers and commitments in real time and settle contracts with more confidence and trust—accelerating the transformation of trade for good.
Impact and Assurance
Verified commercial, social, environmental and transactional primary data that is meaningful, measurable, equitable, and secure.
With the Impact and Assurance Programme, we aim to shift the impact paradigm by ensuring our Partners are recongised and rewarded for their commitment to commercial, social and environmental excellence.
We achieve this by collecting verified primary data in a more accurate, secure and equitable way—unlocking value for our Partners.
Sourcery Partners can license their data to other Partners or third-party entities who benefit from the data when it comes to proving fibre and product origin, authenticity and verified social and environmental impact of fibre, yarn and fabric.
Impact Finance
More efficient and scalable trade and impact finance solutions to leverage the full commercial and environmental benefits of the Direct-to-Grower™ Solution.
Transparency, traceability and verified impact require commitment and investment to overcome the barriers that exist in traditional commodity trade—such as inventory risks, high-interest costs, working capital coverage flows and market volatility, Sourcery works with its Partners to develop fit-for-purpose finance solutions with their financial institutions, private capital and family offices to overcome these barriers to continue the transformation of trade for good.
The Sourcery Connect is the digital nexus of the
Direct-to-Grower™ Solution
The Connect App puts the power of direct collaboration, transparent trade and verified impact in the hands of all Sourcery Partners through the Direct-to-Grower™ Solution. This transformative digital technology enables our Partners to connect, trade, collect and verify commercial, environmental, social, and transactional (‘chain-of-custody’) data in real-time and get recognized and financially rewarded for commercial and environmental excellence.
