Measure to Improve Launches Solutions to Support GHG Reporting and EPR Compliance in Fresh Produce

SALINAS, CA — Measure to Improve, a sustainability consulting firm focused exclusively on the fresh produce industry, announced the launch of two new Solutions—service offerings designed to help produce companies meet growing reporting and regulatory expectations: the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory Solution and the EPR Readiness Solution.

These Solutions expand Measure to Improve’s sustainability offerings in response to increasing greenhouse gas disclosure expectations and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) packaging regulations across the supply chain.

Measure to Improve developed these Solutions specifically for the fresh produce industry, with an understanding of how companies operate from growing and harvesting to packing, processing, and supply chain coordination, where information often sits across multiple parts of the business.

The EPR Readiness Solution helps produce companies prepare for expanding packaging reporting requirements under state EPR laws. These programs require companies to track packaging materials, register with Producer Responsibility Organizations, and, in many cases, contribute fees tied to packaging volumes. The Solution helps organizations understand what information is required, identify where that information exists internally, and prepare teams for reporting obligations.

“We continue to grow our suite of Solutions as a reflection of the needs of the fresh produce industry,” said Nikki Cossio, CEO and Founder of Measure to Improve. “With more than 12 years of experience working alongside growers, packers, and shippers, we build Sustainable Solutions that help companies respond in a way that fits how their businesses operate and supports long-term decisions.”

Measure to Improve works exclusively with the fresh produce industry, supporting growers, packers, and shippers with sustainability strategy and compliance. The firm designs its Solutions around the operational realities of produce supply chains, helping organizations organize information, build internal processes, and respond to evolving expectations with confidence.

Demand for greenhouse gas inventories and EPR preparation is expected to increase as retailer expectations expand, disclosure requirements continue to develop, and additional states implement packaging regulations.
