Halotrade. A solution for sustainable, transparent supply chains

Environmental Degradation. Employment Malpractice.

Companies with complex, worldwide supply chains are at constant risk of a scandal affecting their brand. Why? Because buyers cannot verify and influence everything in their supply chain. And sellers are not always incentivised to follow sustainable and ethical business practices.

Halotrade works with legacy and new technology solutions to link the supply chain from end to end. This allows Halotrade to track shipments from means of production to destination. Halotrade uses this information to offer attractive financing to suppliers in return for sustainable and ethical business practices.
