Description

This project seeks to define climate leadership in the food industry, 2020 and beyond. The role of corporate climate leadership is more important than ever. The scale of corporate action to date has been impressive, but it is not enough to deliver a sustainable future. The bar for leadership is rising, and it is imperative that companies bring their stakeholders, including suppliers and customers, on the journey with them.

WWF is working with one of the largest global food retailers to help reduce their environmental impact and lead the way for others to do the same.

In order to go further and help shape climate leadership for the retail industry, we are looking to work with a suitably experienced independent consultancy firm or expert to shape and define the journey of climate leadership for a multinational food company, today and tomorrow (including trends, opportunities, pitfalls to watch out for, etc.). This should include:

• Where the greatest potential innovations are to be unlocked in technology, policy, and practice (both own operations and supply chain).

• A mapped view of where competitors, peers and other sector leaders are across various climate commitments and activities.

Full details about this project scope and the desired outputs are described in the attached Consultancy Brief.

WWF UK welcomes proposals, to be submitted by email by midday, 27th January 2020 to Seán Mallon, Climate Change Specialist, WWF-UK (email smallon@wwf.org.uk). Proposals should set out should set out (and support with evidence where necessary) the proposed approach and methodology, relevant experience, an outline project plan and full costs and expenses.
