Its clients range from global retailers and national regulators to NGOs, law enforcement agencies, and commodity traders, all aiming to strengthen their commitment to responsible and sustainable sourcing.

Cameron Scadding, Founder and CEO of Source Certain, said: “The future of trade depends on trust – and trust depends on evidence. We want to make forensic-level origin testing the standard, not the exception.

“We’re excited to partner with Greensphere because they understand both the scientific depth of what we do and the commercial scale it requires to have global impact. We’ve spent more than a decade proving our method in law enforcement and with high-value commodities. Now, with this partnership, we can expand further into markets where science-backed evidence is desperately needed.”

Founded in 2015, Source Certain provides science-based solutions to commercial clients worldwide, specializing in Origin Verification for food and natural resources. Using techniques like trace element analysis and stable isotope ratio analysis, the company scientifically verifies product origin claims.

This service helps protect brand reputation, prevent food fraud, mislabeling, or substitution, and validate sourcing data for accurate ESG and sustainability reporting. It also enhances data collection and minimizes sourcing risks such as sourcing from deforested or sanctioned regions. By delivering evidence-based analysis Source Certain strengthens traceability systems and provides reliable assurance in responsible and sustainable sourcing practices.

Divya Seshamani, Managing Partner of Greensphere Capital, said: “Today’s supply chains are inherently complex and frequently opaque. This creates challenges not only around ethics and environmental impact, but also with establishing fundamental truths. Where was this grown? Who handled it? Did it pass through sanctioned hands? For years, it has been either too slow or too expensive to get a clear picture of what happened on the journey from farm to fork, or from sea to supermarket shelf.

“What blockchain promised but couldn’t deliver – incorruptible truth – can instead be achieved with chemistry. With Source Certain’s technology, we can test origins faster and more accurately than ever before using hard science – no paperwork necessary. The product is now its own proof.”
