  • Freeing your Supply Chain from Deforestation in all its forms.

    The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) aims to curb the EU’s role in global deforestation by regulating high-risk commodities like soy, cocoa, coffee, palm oil, cattle, timber, and rubber. Products tied to deforestation may be banned from the EU, with penalties up to 4% of annual turnover. Good Growth Collective helps businesses achieve EUDR compliance through science-based strategies—supporting supply chain mapping, due diligence, risk assessments, and sustainable policy integration.

  • Sustainability solutions across borders.

    The European Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) takes effect in 2026, imposing new carbon taxes on imports across six high-emission sectors: aluminium, cement, electricity, fertilisers, hydrogen, and iron & steel. Companies importing these goods into the EU must report their embedded carbon emissions or face increased tariffs, rising costs, and closer regulatory scrutiny. At Good Growth Collective, we help importers prepare for CBAM with tailored strategies that ensure compliance, reduce risk, and support long-term sustainability goals.

  • Circular design, linear benefits.

    The Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) is central to the EU’s shift toward a circular, low-impact economy. It sets mandatory sustainability standards for nearly all physical products sold in the EU—emphasizing durability, energy efficiency, recyclability, and circular design. Non-compliance can result in penalties and limited market access. Good Growth Collective helps businesses understand the ESPR, embed sustainable design practices, and stay compliant, while turning regulatory challenges into innovation opportunities.

Not sure which regulations might affect your business? Sign up for our compliance scan!

Navigate complex sustainability regulations with confidence. Good Growth Collective’s signature Compliance Scan identifies the local and EU-level environmental, social, and governance (ESG) regulations your business must meet now and in the future.

We take the time to understand your operations, then cross-check your business model against a curated database of over 100 regulations. The result? A clear roadmap to regulatory compliance and good growth.

Step 1: Company Deep Dive

We start by getting to know your company. We look into your business model and the ESG related strategies, policies and initiatives you already have in your operations. This allows us to focus on what truly is a regulatory hurdle for your business.

Step 2: ESG Compliance Scan

Based on the results of our deep dive we cross-reference your business model with our list of ESG-related regulations. Is your company compliant with everything it needs to be? That's what we aim to find out. This step allows us to have an overview of the existing regulatory and sectorial pressures on your business and how we can best offer you assistance.

Step 3: Compliance Roadmap

Based on what we've found in our ESG compliance scan we'll offer you advice on how to act. If we've found any crucial regulation under which you are not compliant (but really ought to be) we'll advise on how to get there. We'll create a tailored roadmap to follow in order to meet the requirements of the sustainability regulations relevant to your industry.

Step 4: ESG Compliance Advisory Letter

After completing your compliance roadmap, we provide a personalized Compliance Advisory Letter: a clear, actionable summary of your regulatory obligations.

This document outlines:

  • The steps we took to assess your business

  • The specific sustainability and ESG regulations your organization must comply with

  • The risks of non-compliance

  • The potential benefits and opportunities of meeting these legal requirements

  • The next steps to reach full compliance

Is this relevant for SMEs or only large companies?

The scan is valuable for both large companies and SMEs. While some ESG regulations have specific thresholds, many apply regardless of company size. That is why it is important for every organization to stay ahead and ensure they remain up to date, as ESG is becoming relevant for every business, no matter the scale.

What are the benefits of doing this scan now?

The regulatory landscape is constantly evolving. By acting early, your organization avoids compliance risks and costly last-minute adjustments. The scan also helps uncover business opportunities, such as improving your sustainability positioning with clients or qualifying for ESG-conscious tenders and supply chains. It’s a strategic step toward building a future-proof business.

What support do you offer after the ESG compliance scan is completed?

Once we’ve delivered the ESG regulation roadmap, we can help your company take the next steps toward compliance. We offer practical support for the implementation of specific regulations, such as EUDR, CBAM and ESPR. Our team knows what’s needed and can work with you to set up the right processes, collect the necessary data and prepare documentation.
