Maison du Monde: collaboration with Sourcemap in the wood sector

(CercleFinance.com) - Maisons du Monde announced on Tuesday that it would be teaming up with US software publisher Sourcemap to comply with European deforestation standards.


The furniture and homeware retailer says it has chosen Sourcemap's supply chain compliance software to comply with the European Union's deforestation regulation, which is due to come into force on December 30, 2024.

This directive includes strict requirements for mapping and tracking logistics, the group points out in a press release.

Thanks to Sourcemap, Maisons du Monde will be able to map all its raw materials down to the forests from which they originate, and monitor deforestation using real-time satellite imagery, so that every shipment entering the EU can be traced and confirmed.

The aim is to provide visibility to guarantee compliance with environmental standards at every stage of production.

Maisons du Monde has been committed to preserving trees for over ten years, in order to improve the impact of its wood supply chain through, among other things, the purchase of certified or traceable wood.
