What I.P.Cert does
I.P.Cert (ТОВ "Ай.Пі.Серт") is a privately held Ukrainian consulting company founded in 2015 and headquartered in Kyiv, specializing in agricultural standards certification and sustainability advisory. The firm provides end-to-end support across international sustainability standards including ISCC, RedCert, 2BSvs, KZR INiG, Non-GMO, and Organic, as well as EUDR compliance for European market access and phytosanitary certification for Chinese export markets (barley, soybeans, corn, peas). Its services span risk assessment, gap analysis, documentation preparation, audit support, and ongoing certificate validity maintenance, delivered through a direct consulting model with a dedicated client portal for workflow tracking.
The company has expanded its scope beyond traditional certification into sustainability and carbon consulting aligned with ESG, ESRS, GHG Protocol, ISO 14064/14067, and SBTi, as well as net-zero project development under VERRA, Gold Standard, and FSC frameworks. Proprietary initiatives include the LIVING CROPLAND carbon sequestration program and the Self-Seeded Forest Conservation Project, supported by partnerships with Regrow Ag (technology MRV), ELEKS and WURC (PATH2CC carbon market access), and Ukrainian Sustainable Fund and Climate Forest Initiatives (conservation). An educational sub-brand, I.P.Cert Academy, delivers training on sustainability, carbon accounting, and regenerative practices.
The business model is professional services: customized consulting engagements with no publicly disclosed pricing, supplemented by free 30-minute consultations as lead generation and webinars/training as top-of-funnel marketing. The company operates with a small core team (approximately 5 listed employees plus a wider team of project managers, analysts, and external advisors) and is founder-owned/bootstrapped, with named enterprise customers including TAS Agro, LNZ Group, Harveast, Eridon, OKKO, Risoil, ADAMA, and others in the Ukrainian agricultural and trading sectors.
