What Peterson Solutions (Sri Lanka) does

Peterson Solutions operates as the global sustainability consultancy and technology arm of Royal Peterson Control Union Group B.V., a family-owned organization founded in 1920 in the port of Rotterdam. The firm delivers end-to-end sustainability, compliance, and supply chain services to multinational corporations, SMEs, farmers' cooperatives, industry associations, NGOs, and governments, with a primary customer focus on multinational enterprises navigating complex regulatory regimes such as EUDR, CBAM, CSRD, and RED III. Its service portfolio spans sustainability strategy and ESG reporting, carbon accounting, certification support, sustainable sourcing, living-wage advisory, CBAM compliance, and training through Peterson Academy.

Underlying the consultancy is a portfolio of proprietary digital platforms: Track & Trace and Task & Evidence provide EUDR-aligned traceability with geolocation data, chain-of-custody verification, and audit-ready evidence collection; Carbon Track offers carbon footprint measurement aligned with Carbon Accounting Alliance standards; Lighthouse delivers real-time supply chain data visibility; CONNECTED is a multi-stakeholder traceability web service; and PISA (Peterson Immediate Spatial Analysis) overlays areas of interest against official and private socio-environmental data layers. The firm also operates technology-adjacent sub-brands including SNS Pool (4PL offshore logistics) and AMLA (vessel sharing), alongside acquired entities such as Core29, LS Customs, 80:20 Procurement, and Delphy Groep BV (majority stake acquired September 2024).

The business model combines professional services revenue (consultancy, certification support, training) with subscription/recurring technology revenue from its digital platforms. The company runs a direct sales and enterprise field-sales motion through 22+ named offices across APAC, Europe, the Americas, and LATAM, supported by dedicated business development representatives in Malaysia, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The Sri Lanka entity (Peterson Projects & Solutions Sri Lanka Ltd, founded 2023, Colombo) sits within this network and serves as a regional market entity within the broader group.
