Zusammenfassung englisch
The research project “Cost allocation and incentive mechanisms for the environment, climate protection and resource conservation along global supply chains” (project number 3722 14 101 0) commissioned by the German Environment Agency investigated (dis)incentives for and barriers to the implementation of environmental measures as well as the exchange of iinformation between different actors along selected global supply chains. The project focused on five supply chains from raw material to the end product that represent key sectors of the German industry with a high potential for environmental and human rights risks: cottonreadymade garments; tin – tin solder; natural rubber – car tyres; coffee – coffee for consumption; iron ore – quality steel for automotive industry. It aimed to provide guidance to business and policy makers to facilitate the practical implementation of effective environmental
upgrade measures along these global supply chains and to allocate the distribution of the resulting cost and benefits more equitably. This report consolidates the research findings for the coffee supply chain for retail and consumer brands. It is a compilation of texts already published in other reports with the purpose of informing decision makers in the coffee supply chain.

Cost allocation and incentive mechanisms for environmental, climate protection and resource conservation along global supply chains - Recommendations for selected incentive mechanisms
(German Environment Agency, 2025)
This report summarizes the findings of the research project "Cost allocation and incentive mechanisms for environmental, climate protection and resource conservation along global supply chains" and investigates four selected supply chain management instruments which have a high potential to increase incentives for environmental protection in global supply chains:price premiums,pay-per-performance contracts,collaborative financing of supplier investments in environmental upgrades, andofftake agreements.Each instrument is discussed regarding its contribution to effective cost-benefit between buying and supplying companies, design options, necessary framework conditions and the roles of various stakeholders to mainstreaming the instrument.
