Help transform consumer shopping patterns
eCommerce plays an indispensable role in consumer shopping patterns and purchase decision-making processes. To embrace the trend of sustainable shopping, FSC collaborates with various partners in the eCommerce space to accelerate the market uptake of FSC-certified products through sustainability programmes and partners’ sustainability agenda setting. By launching sustainability programmes, the user experiences are improved to aid FSC awareness, understanding, and purchase intent, and ultimately consumers make more sustainable choices.
Start your journey with the portal to help transform consumer shopping patterns via easier access to sustainable product choices on marketplaces/platforms with FSC.
How the portal works
Import Products
You can select the sustainability programme(s) you’d like to join, upload FSC-certified product data, and agree to the terms at submission. The summitted product data will be automatically verified by pre-defined rules (auto approval). Once all verification results are positive, the product data will be passed on to your selected marketplaces/platforms.
View Products
You can view the details of all submitted products categorized by each submission or by product. Use the search filters to view specific products. You can edit your products to make ensure the information is up to date.
Update Products
Here you can see a list of products that have been reviewed by FSC and need to be updated. After required updates are completed, FSC will review and approve them.
