Our Ethics and Sustainability strategy sets the direction for us to become a more sustainable and ethical business. In service of our Partnership Purpose, ‘Working in Partnership for a happier world’, we’re aiming to create a kinder, fairer future for Partners, customers, suppliers and the communities in which we operate, building strong and trusted relationships with them whilst ensuring we listen to and understand their concerns.
Each area of our strategy is critical if we are to protect the planet and respect and support the interests of all those touched by our business.
Protecting the rights of workers in our supply chains and championing worker voice.
Connecting and giving back to communities and charitable causes.
Guaranteeing a fair deal for producers and supporting them to farm with nature.
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions in our operations and supply chains, and protecting and enhancing nature through biodiversity.
Enabling customers, Partners and communities to lead healthy and happy lives.
