The goal of this paper is to assess and present the social aspects of the supply chain of honey through the Social Life Cycle Assessment (SLCA). Honey, and all its beekeeping products, are the subjects of a thriving market; indeed, Italian beekeeping accounts for 1.1 million beehives and an estimated turnover of 70 million euros [1]. It is important to note the value of bee pollination for the conservation of natural plant biodiversity. Certainly, it has been estimated that about 35% of food consumption depends directly on the pollination of fruit and vegetable crops or indirectly on the pollination of cultivated fields to forage for livestock. The expected outcome is achieving greater awareness in terms of sustainability, reinforcing customer loyalty and strengthening interaction of the supply chain.
