Mondelez Taps AI to Cut Emissions and Drive Supply Chain Efficiency
Mondelez International has partnered with software company Dynamhex to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into its operations, aiming to significantly reduce carbon emissions across its value chain. The global snacking giant, whose brands include Oreo, Ritz, and Cadbury, will use AI-driven tools to identify and mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at both a site and regional level.
The collaboration centers around utilizing Dynamhex’s SaaS platform to generate precise sustainability insights, enabling Mondelez to improve emissions tracking and modeling throughout its operations. According to the company, this partnership forms part of its broader commitment to reduce end-to-end GHG emissions by 2050, in line with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) guidance for net-zero goals.
Towards Net-Zero: Strategic Use of Data
Mondelez plans to leverage location-specific data and predictive analytics to inform sustainability choices across manufacturing and supplier networks. By tapping into local, regional, and national data sets, the AI solution helps pinpoint carbon hotspots and prioritizes action on high-impact opportunities within the supply chain.
Jonathan Nunn, Vice President of Global Sustainability and Social Impact at Mondelez, said the technology will “complement our existing programs and partnerships, adding a critical layer of locational insight and modeling power.”
Implications for the FMCG Sector
The deployment of AI to tackle emissions underlines a growing trend in the FMCG sector toward digital sustainability tools. As regulatory pressures increase and consumers demand greater transparency, brands are turning to advanced technologies to meet ESG benchmarks without compromising efficiency.
Mondelez’s data-led approach also signals an important shift from traditional emissions tracking to predictive, site-specific mitigation strategies – a model that could soon become standard among multinational CPG leaders. With the food and beverage industry under increasing scrutiny over carbon footprints, AI solutions like Dynamhex’s platform offer a scalable path toward compliant, measurable decarbonization.
This partnership further illustrates how strategic tech adoption not only supports long-term sustainability targets but also builds resilience across supply chains. For FMCG companies navigating complex value networks and scope 3 emission challenges, such integrated tools could prove pivotal in operational and reputational performance.
