We have always shown leadership in responsible sourcing, traceability, and transparency to meet our suppliers’, communities’, customers’, and consumers’ social and environmental needs and expectations. We were the first in the industry to publish a Responsible Sourcing Policy in 2016, and our new Sourcing4Good programme in 2021 builds on this leadership, reflecting our ambition to be B Corp certified and our purpose ambition to source all materials and services in a way that protects people and the environment by 2030. Our purpose commitment to responsible sourcing Sourcing4Good will help accelerate our actions to benefit workers at factory, farm and collector level, promote sustainable agricultural practices and preserve wild harvest supply chains. It will also contribute to the reduction of our supply chain environmental footprints, promote biodiversity and benefit the communities from where we source. This programme is designed to be flexible, collaborative, transformational and beneficial for all. It will reduce risk, increase transparency, and allow greater traceability and data visibility. Improved technology will allow us to collate data from all of our active suppliers so we can better classify and quantify these partnerships. Our ultimate aim is a full portfolio of ingredients, materials and services that will be sourced responsibly. Sourcing4Good covers all of our active suppliers and applies to all natural and synthetic materials as well as indirect materials and services (IM&S). Suppliers can expect a wide variety of benefits including greater access to the market, capacity building and empowerment, and the opportunity for continuous improvement. We expect our suppliers to share our commitment to respecting human rights, providing clean and safe working conditions, promoting good agricultural and collection practices, animal welfare and environmental stewardship. To these ends, OUR AMBITION By 2030, we will source all materials and services in a way that protects people and the environment.
