    Episode 11: Coffee, chocolate and leather shoes – the EU Deforestation Regulation in practice

    Your morning coffee, your favourite chocolate bar, the leather in your shoes-what do they have in common? They may all fall under the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), a landmark piece of environmental trade legislation. In this episode, Marie-Clémence Cicile, Daniela Lozada Fernández and Camille Peraudeau discuss how the EUDR is reshaping international trade in forest-risk commodities such as coffee, cocoa, cattle, rubber and wood. They explore the regulation's core due diligence requirements from two complementary angles: France, as an importing Member State, and Colombia, as a major exporter of affected commodities. The discussion covers compliance strategies, sanctions risks, contractual implications for supply chains, and the specific hurdles that smallholder producers face in adapting to the regulation's traceability requirements.
