Core offering

Stichting MVO-Register operates an independent digital platform that lets Dutch companies compile, publish, and search ESG/MVO (Corporate Social Responsibility) profiles. Its core offering is a free Basis Account combined with a searchable public register of 8,000+ companies, 24,000+ impact stories, a peer Future Proof Community, and paid add-on modules for sustainable procurement (MVI) and MVO measurement (TIM-meting).

Product overview

Stichting MVO-Register operates a unified sustainability data platform focused on ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) transparency for Dutch businesses. The core portfolio consists of the ESG Register (a searchable database of company sustainability profiles), the Future Proof Community (a peer knowledge-sharing platform), and ESG Profile tools (for companies to compile and publish their sustainability data). These are complemented by two specialized modules: MVI (Maatschappelijk Verantwoord Inkopen/Sustainable Procurement) for supply chain analysis and supplier comparison, and the TIM-meting sales tool (now administered by FIRA Sustainability). A free Basis Account provides foundational access, with additional functionality available through the platform's modules.

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• EcoVadis: Global sustainability ratings platform focused on supplier ESG assessments and supply-chain due diligence. Directly comparable to MVO-Register's MVI supplier screening workflow, but at global scale and with for-profit backing.
• IntegrityNext: SaaS platform for sustainable supply chain compliance and supplier ESG monitoring. Closely mirrors the MVI module's enterprise procurement use case and target buyer profile.
• Sedex: ESG data platform for supply chains, including a member-based register of suppliers and buyers managing labor, ethics, and environmental performance. Comparable network-driven register model.
• MVO Nederland: Dutch CSR/MVO network and knowledge platform serving Dutch businesses seeking sustainability guidance. Directly competes in the same Dutch MVO awareness and community layer.
• Avetta: Supply chain compliance and sustainability management platform with a network of prequalified suppliers. Overlaps with MVI on supplier sustainability screening for enterprise buyers.

Broad incumbents

• B Lab: Global non-profit network administering B Corp certification for companies meeting social and environmental performance standards. Overlaps in CSR/ESG positioning but operates as a broader certification ecosystem rather than a Netherlands-focused register.
• CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project): Global non-profit running the world's leading environmental disclosure system for companies, cities, and investors. Overlaps with MVO-Register's ESG profile publication model but at vastly larger international scale.

Emerging players

• Synesgy: ESG assessment and digital certification platform providing standardized sustainability scores for SMEs and supply chains. Comparable emerging entry point in the same supplier ESG screening category.
• Greenly: Carbon accounting and ESG management platform for SMBs and enterprises. Overlaps with MVO-Register on the SMB-side ESG tooling and reporting automation.

Regional players

• IMVO (Convenant Duurzame Kleding & Textiel): Dutch multi-stakeholder covenant focused on sustainable supply chains in specific sectors. Operates in adjacent Dutch ESG/supply-chain territory but with a sector-specific rather than horizontal CSR register focus.
