Resumo(s)
This individual study develops and evaluates a simplified sustainable sourcing framework within the FMG-Light model, focusing on the sourcing pillar of the Food Made Good Standard. Drawing on an extensive literature review on sustainable supply chain management, local and seasonal sourcing, plant-forward strategies, ethical procurement, and sustainable seafood, a set of low-effort, high-impact sourcing indicators was designed using a three-stage maturity model. These indicators were tested through ten semi-structured interviews with managers at a Portuguese golf resort and experts from the Sustainable Restaurant Association. Findings reveal that sustainable sourcing is primarily constrained by structural factors such as scale dependency, bounded autonomy, and low data maturity. In response, a revised FMG-Light Sourcing Pillar (V2) is proposed as a transitional capability framework towards full certification.
