The Sweet Spot: How Lindt & Sprüngli Uses Data Intelligence to Drive Supply Chain Sustainability

About this event

Most companies report Scope 3 emissions. Few can reduce them.

Sustainability teams measure carbon emissions. Logistics teams optimize for cost and lead time. These decisions happen in separate systems.

Average emission factors don't reveal which carriers, routes, or modes drive your actual footprint. Supply chain changes get evaluated on cost and service impact; carbon implications surface later. When disruption hits, you have no mechanism to balance resilience with emission performance.

The gap: you're measuring, but you're not using that data to make decisions.

What this webinar covers

A 45-minute conversation between Johann Spriet (Lindt & Sprüngli), Constantine Komodromos (VesselBot), and Bart De Muynck (Industry Advisor) on how to move from sustainability reporting to operational carbon reduction.

The Data Quality Challenge: Why average emission factors fail. How granular, shipment-specific measurement across modes (ocean, air, land) creates the foundation for both internal decisions and external carrier collaboration. What it takes to share execution data with carriers and freight forwarders.

Optimization, Risk, and Resilience: How to identify which carriers and lanes deliver the best balance of cost, service, and carbon performance. How to evaluate logistics changes before they create unintended emission increases. How to build resilient supply chains that can balance disruption response with emission performance, enabling dynamic mode shifts and rerouting without sacrificing sustainability goals.

Operationalizing in Legacy Systems: The practical challenge: embedding emission data into procurement workflows, carrier selection, and daily routing decisions. How Lindt integrated shipment-level data into existing systems. What Decision Intelligence looks like when it enables automatic rerouting and dynamic mode optimization.

Lindt & Sprüngli is a 180-year-old company navigating deforestation risk, global traceability, legacy system constraints, supply chain resilience, and Scope 3 emissions that represent 95% of their total footprint. Their sustainability journey offers lessons for any industry managing complex, multi-modal logistics while balancing cost, compliance, and operational quality.
