DOWNLOAD THE CASE STUDY
SAI Platform’s Sustainable Dairy Partnership (SDP) is quickly forming part of the dairy sector’s shared language for credible, comparable sustainability reporting. Created to bring coherence to an industry long burdened by fragmented standards, duplicated audits and inconsistent data, the SDP offers a unified framework that aligns buyers, processors and suppliers. Its adoption signals a decisive shift toward clarity and collective progress.
ofi’s experience demonstrates this in practice. Operating in 19 countries, the company previously faced conflicting expectations from customers and uneven reporting from suppliers. Under the SDP, ofi now provides standardised, independently verified data worldwide and uses the same structure to engage suppliers more efficiently. The result is simpler reporting, stronger transparency and a clearer line of sight between on‑farm actions and global climate and livelihoods goals.
For SAI Platform, the importance of this case is what it confirms: the SDP is contributing to deliver what the industry has long needed. By reducing duplication, strengthening trust and supporting measurable improvement, the framework is proving capable of unifying a complex global sector. ofi is not the star of the story; it is the evidence.
“SAI Platform’s Sustainable Dairy Partnership (SDP) is a game‑changer for the dairy industry. It brings clarity and alignment to a space that has long been fragmented. As a global dairy supplier offering ingredients and value-added solutions, we see firsthand how the SDP simplifies reporting and fosters collaboration. It’s not just a tool; it’s a catalyst for industry‑wide transformation. By adopting the SDP, we’re not only improving our own operations but also supporting the broader shift toward sustainable dairy.”
