Insights
Sadot's 37.5% stake in Indonesian carbon project represents strategic diversification with potential upside from rising carbon prices.
Sadot Group's acquisition of a 37.5% stake in the Special Development Group marks a calculated diversification into the growing carbon credits market. The investment positions the company to capitalize on the projected 3x-10x price increase for high-quality nature-based carbon credits by 2030, as forecasted by McKinsey and BCG.
The project's expected generation of 1.1-1.2 million carbon credits represents significant potential revenue. Validation under VM0007 and VM0033 methodologies ensures these will be premium-grade credits, commanding higher market prices than lower-quality alternatives. The focus on peatland and mangrove ecosystems is particularly strategic, as these biomes sequester carbon at rates 3-5 times higher per hectare than terrestrial forests.
Beyond direct revenue from credit sales, this investment creates operational synergies across Sadot's existing agricultural supply chain. The company can use a portion of these credits to offset its own emissions, potentially reducing compliance costs as carbon regulations tighten globally. This vertical integration of carbon offsetting represents a forward-thinking approach to regulatory risk management.
The partnership with 11 indigenous coastal communities adds social impact credentials that enhance marketability to corporate buyers increasingly scrutinizing the co-benefits of carbon projects. As major corporations accelerate net-zero commitments, demand for high-integrity credits with strong community engagement components continues to outpace supply, creating favorable pricing dynamics for early movers like Sadot.

BURLESON, TX / ACCESS Newswire / July 23, 2025 / Sadot Group Inc. (NASDAQ:SDOT), ("Sadot Group", "Sadot" or the "Company"), an emerging player in the global Agri-food supply chain, announced today its strategic entry into a landmark nature-based carbon project in Indonesia's Riau Islands - marking a significant milestone in its mission to decarbonize commodity supply chains through scalable, nature-positive solutions.

A share of these credits will also be used to directly offset emissions from Sadot's operations, further strengthening its net-zero roadmap.
"This project brings operational synergy to Sadot while supports our decarbonization goals across our grain, protein, and logistics verticals," said Chagay Ravid, CEO of Sadot Group. "Nature-based carbon is becoming central to how supply chains will be financed, regulated, and measured in the years ahead, and we are exploring making it a core part of our operational and financial strategy."
Recent research by McKinsey & Company and BCG indicates that prices for high-quality, nature-based carbon credits could rise by 3x to 10x by 2030, driven by increasing corporate demand, regulatory tightening, and growing scrutiny around offset integrity.
SDG has advised that the initiative is expected to generate between 1.1 and 1.2 million high-integrity carbon credits in its first issuance cycle, verified under internationally recognized methodologies. Validation is planned under the VM0007 (REDD+) and VM0033 (Tidal Wetlands Restoration) methodologies, ensuring full compliance with the highest global standards for nature-based carbon projects.
This move builds on Sadot's broader ESG strategy, which includes regenerative farming pilots, lower-emission logistics, and traceable sourcing models. By embedding nature-based solutions at the core of its operations, Sadot is advancing a future where food production and environmental restoration go hand in hand.
