DOWNTOWN, Singapore - eTradeWire -- Valency International Partners with Cognitud to Advance Its ESG and Climate Transformation Agenda

Valency International, a leading global agri-commodities trading, processing, and value-added products company, has announced a key partnership with Cognitud Sustainability to strengthen and advance its enterprise-wide ESG and climate transformation program.

As part of this engagement, Cognitud Sustainability will support Valency International across a comprehensive suite of sustainability and climate services, including Climate Change Risk Assessment, Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Accounting, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Double Materiality Assessment, and Sustainability Reporting. The partnership marks a significant milestone in Valency's journey to embed sustainability, climate resilience, and responsible value creation at the core of its global operations.

Operating across complex, multi-geography agri-commodity supply chains, Valency International recognizes that climate change, resource constraints, and evolving regulatory expectations present both material risks and strategic opportunities. The collaboration with Cognitud is designed to help Valency proactively identify, assess, and manage these risks while strengthening transparency, performance measurement, and long-term resilience.

Driving a Structured and Implementation-Led ESG Transformation

Under the partnership, Cognitud Sustainability will work closely with Valency's leadership and sustainability teams to deliver a science-based, implementation-focused ESG transformation roadmap. This includes assessing Valency's exposure to physical and transition climate risks across its value chain, developing a robust GHG emissions baseline across Scope 1, Scope 2, and relevant Scope 3 categories, and conducting Life Cycle Assessments to better understand environmental impacts associated with key commodities and products.

In addition, Cognitud will support Valency in strengthening its sustainability reporting, ensuring alignment with leading international standards and investor expectations while improving the quality, consistency, and credibility of disclosed ESG information.

Supporting Responsible Growth Across Global Supply Chains

Through this partnership, the company aims to enhance supply-chain transparency, improve environmental performance, and strengthen decision-making related to climate resilience, resource efficiency, and long-term value creation.

The collaboration reflects a shared commitment to moving beyond compliance-driven ESG approaches toward measurable, outcome-oriented sustainability implementation. Cognitud's execution-led advisory model will help translate assessments and frameworks into actionable insights that can be embedded into Valency's operational and strategic processes.
