Koltiva, a Swiss-Indonesian AgriTech company operating in 94 countries and enabling over 19,000 businesses, is launching a groundbreaking AI-powered traceability initiative to transform global agribusiness supply chains. The first pilot project will be implemented with SUGATA PTE. LTD, a sustainability-driven coffee and cocoa supplier based in Aceh, Indonesia, and will introduce the region’s first AI-enabled traceability model for responsible sourcing, under the AIAP for Industry initiative led by AI Singapore.
This initiative responds to mounting global regulatory pressures such as the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), the U.S. Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), and Europe’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD). By integrating world-class artificial intelligence into its digital ecosystem, this collaboration helps Koltiva in developing cutting-edge solutions for AI-powered traceability and sustainability intelligence. This strategic project leverages AI Singapore’s deep technical framework to embed intelligent capabilities into every stage of the supply chain, specifically targeting AI for Sustainability and Risk Resilience, Field Operations, and Fair Finance, reinforcing Koltiva’s position at the forefront of the global AgriTech sector.
Speaking on the significance of the collaboration, Joe Keen Poon, Executive Chairman of the Board at KOLTIVA, says, “As a Singaporean leading a global firm, I am proud to anchor our technological evolution in AI Singapore’s world-class ecosystem. By leveraging Singapore’s AI leadership, we are empowering smallholder farmers across 94 countries to navigate complex global regulations through truly intelligent, data-driven supply chains.”
“Global supply chains are facing unprecedented pressure from tightening compliance regulations, growing consumer demand for transparent food security systems to the urgent need for smallholder inclusion. This is driving a fundamental shift where AI-powered traceability is a catalyst for building inclusive, resilient, and sustainable food systems. The collaboration with our partner, SUGATA and AI Singapore marks a major step forward in making global supply chains not only transparent but truly intelligent.”
This collaboration will explore capabilities enhancement that transform how sustainability, field operations are managed across agribusiness supply chains. At the heart of this initiative is AI for Sustainability and Risk Resilience, where predictive intelligence enhances how agribusinesses measure and manage environmental and social performance. By embedding advanced analytics and automated reporting into KoltiTrace’s digital ecosystem, the collaboration explores real-time monitoring of climate, yield, and compliance risks. AI-generated sustainability reports, continuous data verification, and automated ESG documentation will help agribusinesses and investors move from reactive compliance to proactive climate action grounded in verifiable data.
Equally transformative is the application of AI to field operations and project empowerment. Intelligent advisory systems will equip agronomists and project managers with real-time insights that guide decision-making on the ground, whether through profitability analytics, contract intelligence, or risk tracking dashboards. These tools make operations not only more efficient but more adaptive to changing conditions, ensuring that every field intervention is data-informed and impact-driven.
Laurence Liew, Director of AI Innovation at AI Singapore says, “Through the AIAP for Industry, AI Singapore is pleased to partner with Kudeungo Sugata (through Sugata Pte. Ltd) and Koltiva to advance AI solutions that strengthen sustainability and resilience across agribusiness supply chains. This collaboration brings together our shared commitment to developing impactful, industry ready innovations while cultivating a strong pipeline of local AI engineering talent for the future.”
SUGATA, as the first KOLTIVA’s client to pilot these AI solutions within its cocoa and coffee sourcing operations in Indonesia, integrates full-farm mapping, training, and coaching for producers, as well as premium payments tied to sustainable practices. Furqonudin Ramadhani, CTO and Co-Founder Koltiva, says, “We are prioritizing the co-development of an AI-Generated Sustainability and Compliance Reporting platform with integrated Data Quality Monitoring. This system will automate reporting processes, replacing manual workflows with fast, accurate, and globally aligned ESG and due diligence documentation. AI will also monitor and validate data across systems, detect anomalies, and ensure the integrity of field and transaction records.”
