With over 30,000 customers in 190 countries, joining forces with Registrar marks an exciting new chapter in Foodsteps' history as we take our sustainability solutions global. Since our inception at Foodsteps, we have focused on empowering food businesses to lead in sustainability through our scalable platform and science-backed data. By joining forces with Registrar, we're now even better equipped to support businesses in meeting sustainability regulations and Net Zero targets. This partnership comes at a crucial time in the industry as sustainability regulation is developing at pace, with frameworks like CSRD, Scope 3 reporting and FLAG adding pressure on food businesses to comply with standards and regulations. By joining forces with the global leader in regulation and compliance for food businesses, we are best placed to deliver the next generation of sustainability solutions to the industry. Rest assured, nothing will change about Foodsteps—our team, brand, mission, and vision remain the same. We will continue to grow our team, hiring the best talent who are passionate about helping our planet. What will change is our reach and ability to help more businesses as we expand beyond the UK and EU. We are excited to be supported by Registrar, and their backers Paine Schwartz Partners - the largest private equity firm dedicated to sustainable food chain investing. Their wealth of knowledge and expertise will aid us at Foodsteps in driving environmental transformation within our food systems. We thank our team, customers, community, and mentors for helping us reach this milestone. As we look to the next chapter of Foodsteps, we want to thank you for your unwavering support of our mission and values. Anya Doherty, CEO and Founder
