Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 1,0, , course: Sustainable Supply Chains, language: English, abstract: Social sustainability certificates are used to credibly demonstrate sustainable and responsible approaches to the environment and employees in the supply chain. This is necessary because many consumer goods or raw materials are grown and manufactured in developing countries before being sold to other markets. Developing countries often do not have comparable laws on environmental and worker protection. Likewise, there are hardly any measures that can counteract social inequality, child labor and systematic poverty. Small-scale individual farmers, as in the case of cocoa or coffee cultivation, work hard every day and can hardly build up reserves due to the price pressure of the world market and large corporations. Even school education for their children is not affordable. While the demand for goods such as cocoa and coffee continues to rise worldwide, it will still hardly be possible for the next generation to have a higher income and a better future. These conditions of cultivation and competition create difficult living conditions and threaten at the same time the adequate supply of the coveted raw materials for the industry, for example when, in the case of cocoa, the younger generation does not want to take over the farms. This essay aims to elaborate on the question if external certification is the right tool to improve the situation in the industry or if buying companies should try to promote their own standards and mechanisms.
