Meridia Verify

Data quality verification: the pivotal value driver in sourcing, procurement, trading & compliance

The quality of your data has major impacts upon risk management. Our recent Cavally Cocoa Farm Data Study suggests that ~30% of smallholder field data may not be reliable. ~75% of tropical commodities such as cocoa, coffee, palm oil, soy and rubber, are insufficiently traceable.


Specialists in data verification for over a decade, we offer real-time field and physical flow data verification and compliance for 35 origin countries in cocoa, coffee, palm oil and more — with new data stress tests, commodities and origins added continually.

Integrate real-time data verification & compliance validation into your procurement cycle

• Meridia Verify offers real-time data verification and compliance validation for seamless integration into commercial procurement cycles. 
• Available via monthly or annual subscription and via our secure portal or API, Verify includes data auditability and proposed risk mitigation resolutions to improve data quality, a centralised data source offering a ‘single version of the truth’, and more.
• We incorporate close to 50 rigorous tests on field data, physical flow data, and EUDR compliance—more than any other provider. That’s because everything starts and ends with the veracity, the overall quality, of your data.

Roadmap to EUDR compliance

Working directly from the source articles, we assess and validate EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) compliance in four key areas.

• Data quality
  • Risk rating on data truthfulness at farm level including geolocations and attributes
  • Covering data integrity, consistency and plausibility
• Deforestation
  • Deforestation tests according to the EUDR definition, based on reputable sources (Source EUDR Article 9(1)g)
• Legality
  • Risk rating on legality at farm level
  • Covering land use and indigenous rights; Environmental and Forest protection; Human rights and more
• Traceability
  • Risk rating on truthfulness of traceability data at parcel level (chain of custody)
  • Covering data integrity, consistency and plausibility

Deep insight into data for proactive risk management

• Comprehensive testing
  Every farm record gets a score in each of the 40+ tests. Results are organised by risk category and geographic risk area.
• Customisable analysis
  Breakdown data by supplier, farmer and more. Scoring allows filtering of compliant and non-compliant data, to the purpose of the dataset.
