Carbon compliance built for food & beverage manufacturers
Retailer ESG scorecards, the UK Green Claims Code, and CSRD reach are turning agricultural Scope 3 data into a listing requirement. Greenly gives you the data — continuously, not at sprint time.

Why food & beverage manufacturers can't out-spreadsheet this
Thousands of SKUs, one spreadsheet
Multi-ingredient formulations, changing recipes, portfolios of hundreds to thousands of products. The Excel model breaks the day a buyer asks for a product-level number.
A retailer or downstream buyer just asked for data you don't have
Retail category reviews and cooperative-member requests are increasingly conditioned on supply-chain transparency. Losing that data request could cost you the contract.
Agricultural Scope 3 category 1 is the hardest measurement problem in the sector
Livestock, crops, inputs, and land-use change make up 60–80% of total footprint. Spend-based estimates don't hold up once a buyer's scorecard asks for real data.
From farm to footprint,
étape 1Consolidate carbon data across sites and suppliers
Each site and business unit reports into one structure; boundaries and emission factors set once, applied across the group.- Group dashboard shows consolidated Scope 1/2 with site-level drill-down.
- Supports multi-entity, multi-country rollout without restarting the calculation.
étape 2Pull primary data from your agricultural supply chain
- Automated supplier questionnaires with scoring, evidence capture, and audit trail, for Scope 3 category 1 closing.
- Food-specific emission factor libraries (Agribalyse, Ecoinvent food databases) with automated matching.
- Land-use change emissions separated at source, ready for FLAG modelling.
étape 3Run your product LCAs
- Model food products at SKU level, including ingredient-level substitution scenarios.
- Automated LCA output feeds eco-labelling (Planet Score and equivalents) and reformulation decisions.
- Updates automatically when a recipe or supplier changes, unlike a static consultant report.
étape 4Generate audit-ready outputs
- GHG Protocol Corporate Standard + Scope 3 Standard.
- CSRD ESRS E1 module. CDP Supply Chain and EcoVadis exports. Retailer scorecard formats.
- SBTi FLAG-ready target submission. Auditor read-only mode. Version history per data point.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions? Check out our complete FAQs to get the answers you’re looking for.
Yes. Greenly uses activity-based data instead of spend-based estimates for livestock, crops, inputs, and land-use change, combined with a primary supplier data collection module, so agricultural emissions are backed by real farm and supplier data rather than industry averages.
Yes. Data is entered once and published across CDP Supply Chain, EcoVadis, and retailer-specific scorecard formats, so a scorecard request doesn't trigger a separate manual response each cycle.
Yes. Greenly separates land-use change and agricultural emissions from the rest of the footprint, which is the specific requirement for any food or beverage company submitting a science-based target under SBTi's FLAG guidance.
Yes. LCAs are automated across portfolios of hundreds to thousands of SKUs rather than commissioned product by product, and update automatically when a recipe or supplier changes.
Greenly draws on food-specific factors alongside EPA and ecoinvent data, across a database of more than 500,000 emission factors, with automated matching and full version control.
Greenly's reporting module covers GHG inventory across Scope 1, 2, and 3, with audit-grade traceability. For companies with California operations, the same continuous data supports SB 253 (Scope 1/2 disclosure) and SB 261 (climate-related financial risk) without a separate workflow, alongside the buyer and retailer data requests driving most of the sector's demand.
Greenly's supplier engagement module turns that request into a structured, repeatable data collection process — primary agricultural data, product LCA output, and export-ready formats for CDP Supply Chain, EcoVadis, and retailer-specific scorecards — so the answer is built once and reused for every subsequent request instead of assembled from scratch each time.
