FINBOOT AND BANQU ANNOUNCE A STRATEGIC TIE-UP TO BRING ADVANCED ANALYTICS AND AI TO “AT ORIGIN” SUPPLY CHAINS
London, UK – Minneapolis, US, MONDAY 7th OCTOBER 2025 – BanQu, the award-winning supply chain traceability platform, and Finboot, a pioneer in green supply chain management technology, today announced a strategic partnership to accelerate “at origin” tracking, reporting, and verification using AI, blockchain, and advanced analytics.
As economic uncertainty continues globally, companies are trying to secure their supply chains and build “just-in-case” safeguards. While most companies know their tier 1 and tier 2 suppliers, they have little to no information or insight into the next set of tiers where rubber hits the road. This leads to higher sourcing costs, regulatory fines and disruptions.
The collaboration combines BanQu’s proven expertise in first-mile traceability and inclusion with Finboot’s industry-leading Green Supply Chain Management suite. Together, the companies will deliver an end-to-end solution that empowers enterprises to capture and verify data across their value chains—from raw material sourcing to the final consumer—while meeting the growing demands of regulators, investors, and conscious consumers.
BanQu has pioneered “origin track and trace” for millions of suppliers and processed over 9 billion kilos of commodities such as rice, barley, coffee, cocoa, oil palm, PET, glass, cassava, etc. since 2016.
Global consumer brands, international development banks, and trading companies use its patented blockchain & AI SaaS platform in their everyday sustainability and procurement operations to reduce costs and increase supply chain efficiencies.
Finboot’s technology provides supply chain management for the world’s leading companies. Its platform traces carbon emissions and minimizes risk through immutable data. Finboot has created the first green supply chain management suite with integrated traceability, enabling companies to track emissions, automate digital product passports, create sustainability credits, and facilitate compliance. Finboot operates across the UK, Europe, and the US with flagship customers such as Evonik, Repsol, Sabic, Moeve, Gestamp, and Big River Steel (a US Steel company), amongst others, and is backed by Sabic and Repsol.
By integrating BanQu’s mobile-first traceability tools with Finboot’s green supply chain suite, the partnership will:
· Enable companies to meet evolving regulatory reporting standards with confidence.
· Strengthen auditability and compliance across global supply chains.
· Empower producers, workers, and SMEs at the grassroots with digital inclusion.
· Provide investors and consumers with verifiable sustainability data.
Ashish Gadnis, CEO of BanQu, said, “This partnership with Finboot is a major step forward in our mission to democratize supply chains. By fusing accessibility with blockchain trust, we can drive measurable impact at both ends of the value chain.”
JuanMiguel Pérez, CEO of Finboot, added, “Together with BanQu, we are creating a powerful ecosystem where transparency, compliance, and sustainability go hand in hand, unlocking long-term value for businesses and society.”
Nish Kotecha, Chair of Finboot, added, “Our mission at Finboot is to harness technology for meaningful change. Partnering with BanQu extends that vision by combining trust, transparency, and inclusion. This collaboration creates a powerful opportunity for enterprises to meet ESG goals while driving real impact for people and the planet.”
