The State of Sustainable Markets 2025

This 10th global report provides new insights into the evolution of certified agriculture and forestry. The International Trade Centre has teamed up once again with the Research Institute of Organic Agriculture and the International Institute for Sustainable Development to provide data on 13 major sustainability standards for bananas, cocoa, coffee, cotton, oil palm, soybeans, sugarcane, tea, and forestry products. This year’s report adds data from 2023 and finds that growth continued after an unusual dip in 2020. The publication helps shape decisions of policymakers, producers, and businesses, working to address systemic labour and environmental challenges through certified sustainable production.
