MEDIA CAMPAIGN

Prospective Class Members in UK

---

As COCOO’s solicitor and marketing expert, I have conducted an exhaustive online search to identify prospective class members in the United Kingdom who may have been harmed by alleged unfair competition from subsidized Indonesian biodiesel imports, as outlined in COCOO’s campaign. These class members include biodiesel producers, upstream suppliers (e.g., farmers’ associations, crop producers, waste oil collectors), investors in renewable energy facilities, and fuel distributors or blenders. Below, I provide a detailed list of prospective class members by name, contact details (where publicly available), victim types, and strategies to reach them, including through relevant UK and EU associations. I’ve maximized available information from credible sources, adhering to privacy constraints, and provided actionable outreach methods tailored to COCOO’s media campaign and legal strategy. The focus is on past, present, and potential future victims in the UK, with emphasis on those impacted by Indonesian biodiesel subsidies, as evidenced by market share losses (45–52% of EU biodiesel imports in 2018–2019) and price undercutting (~7%).

### How to Reach Class Members and Associations

1. **LinkedIn Campaign**:
– **Target**: Biodiesel producers (e.g., Greenergy, Olleco), investors (e.g., Green Fuels), and association leaders (e.g., RTFA, EBB).
– **Method**: Use LinkedIn Campaign Manager (https://www.linkedin.com/ads) to target job titles like CEO, Sustainability Director, and Plant Manager in the UK’s energy sector. Promote COCOO’s white paper with headlines like “Unfair Subsidies Harm UK Biofuels!” Drive traffic to indonesia.cocoo.uk’s Call to Action page. Budget: €500/month for 3 months.
– **Why Effective**: Reaches decision-makers directly, ideal for recruiting core class members.

2. **Meta Ads (Facebook/Instagram)**:
– **Target**: Employees of biodiesel plants (e.g., Immingham, Motherwell), farmers in rapeseed regions (e.g., East Anglia, Lincolnshire), and UCO collectors.
– **Method**: Use Meta Ads Manager (https://www.facebook.com/business/ads) to target postcodes around key sites (e.g., DN40 Immingham, ML1 Motherwell) and interests like “renewable energy” or “agriculture.” Ads should read, “Are Green Jobs/Farms at Risk from Unfair Imports?” Link to COCOO’s campaign page. Budget: €300/month for 3 months.
– **Why Effective**: Engages local communities, generating grassroots support to pressure companies and associations.

3. **X Campaign**:
– **Target**: Associations (e.g., RTFA, NFU), policymakers, and journalists.
– **Method**: Use X Ads (https://ads.twitter.com) to target followers of @CMAgovUK, @tradegovuk, and UK MPs. Share infographics on Indonesian subsidies’ deforestation links, tagging associations and asking, “Why allow unfair imports to harm UK’s green economy?” Budget: €200/month for 3 months.
– **Why Effective**: Builds public and political pressure, encouraging associations to join COCOO’s coalition.

4. **Direct Email and Phone Outreach**:
– **Target**: All listed class members and associations.
– **Method**: Send personalized emails attaching COCOO’s white paper, requesting confidential consultations. Follow up with phone calls to schedule meetings. For associations, propose webinars or newsletter features. Use templates like: “Dear [Name], COCOO is investigating unfair Indonesian biodiesel subsidies harming UK businesses. Our evidence shows [specific impact]. We invite you to join our collective action. Please review our report and contact us for a confidential discussion.”
– **Why Effective**: Direct, professional outreach builds trust and recruits key players.

5. **Events and Conferences**:
– **Target**: Associations (e.g., RTFA, UKPIA) and their members.
– **Method**: Monitor www.rtfa.org.uk and www.ukpia.com for upcoming biofuel conferences in the UK. Attend to network with producers, suppliers, and investors. Distribute COCOO’s public-facing report and collect contact details for follow-up.
– **Why Effective**: Face-to-face engagement strengthens relationships and recruits class members.

### Notes on Search and Data Limitations
– **Search Approach**: I leveraged public business directories (e.g., Cylex, Yell), association websites (e.g., RTFA, EBB), and industry sources (e.g., USDA FAS, UK Trade Remedies Authority) to identify UK biodiesel stakeholders. I cross-referenced with COCOO’s campaign context and web information (e.g.,,) to ensure relevance to Indonesian subsidy impacts.[](https://rtfa.org.uk/)[](https://www.greenergy.com/biofuels)
– **Limitations**: Specific individual contacts (e.g., CEOs) are restricted by GDPR, so I provided corporate or association emails. Smaller producers or collectors may exist but lack public profiles; associations like RTFA can identify these. Phone numbers for associations like RTFA are generic due to limited public data.
– **Future Victims**: New biodiesel plants or UCO collectors entering the market (e.g., startups in 2026–2030) could be harmed if subsidies continue. COCOO should monitor www.rtfa.org.uk and www.ebb-eu.org for emerging players.

This list and outreach strategy optimize COCOO’s ability to build a robust UK class action while leveraging its media campaign to recruit victims and pressure regulators like the CMA and TRA. I recommend prioritizing LinkedIn and email outreach to high-value targets (Greenergy, RTFA, NFU) and scaling Meta/X campaigns for broader engagement. COCOO should track responses on indonesia.cocoo.uk and follow up promptly. If further refinement is needed, I can focus on specific regions or victim types with additional guidance.
