First, thing’s first though, what or who is BiSolvent?
BiSolvent is an initiative by We Mean Business dedicated to lowering the risk from climate change for businesses by supporting them in buying and selling climate-smart products and services. It is effectively a marketplace for sustainably sourced goods and services.
BiSolvent came from the need to find more sustainability.
The idea for BiSolvent came from the need to find more sustainability in our own supply chain. Our clients are the biggest companies in their fields who typically have access to thousands of suppliers around the world.
Why was BiSolvent founded?
The idea for BiSolvent came from the need to find more sustainability in our own supply chain. Our clients are the biggest companies in their fields who typically have access to thousands of suppliers around the world. Our team identified a common problem amongst our clients: they had to source and approach suppliers individually for their needs and, often, had no way of knowing whether those suppliers were carbon-footprint-conscious or practised sustainable methods for procurement and manufacturing.
The overall process of sourcing and comparing suppliers was extensive and offered little in the way of standardising sustainable practices. We wanted to help them fine-tune their approach to prioritising sustainably by surfacing previously undiscovered suppliers, creating shared data sources and workflows, and providing transparency and accountability and BiSolvent enables this business function.
What are the benefits of BiSolvent?
- Minimise Carbon Footprint
The underlying goal of BiSolvent is to promote reduced carbon emissions; both by suppliers and by businesses. Suppliers are motivated to review their sustainability practices and employ more eco-conscious measures for production and users (businesses) can then find, and make use of, those suppliers’ services so that their carbon emissions are minimised. It’s a win-win for a sustainable future!
- Improve ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) Goal Policies
Organisations with high ESG propositions have been linked to higher cash flow and limited risk, leading to more investments and improved growth. BiSolvent users earn tokens that can be used to purchase ESG credit to offset their carbon emissions and improve their overall sustainability standing – investing not only in their business but in environmentalism, too.
- Penetrate New Audiences
A survey conducted by Simon-Kucher & Partners found that 85% of shoppers are more interested in purchasing products from environmentally friendly companies, compared to five years ago. Minimising your carbon footprint means attracting a broader customer base and driving additional sales. Which company doesn’t want more business?
