Produce World has recently invested in a dedicated system to manage all of our non financial data. The Credit 360 system was developed in Cambridge and is used by many blue chip businesses including John Lewis, McDonalds and Alliance Boots. Produce World has partnered with Credit 360 to develop a version of the system specifically tailored to smaller businesses allowing us to measure, target and report on over 100 social and environmental KPIs. The performance measures that we are using are based on those set out in the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Framework , The Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol, The London Benchmarking Group and in advice from DEFRA.
