The four levels of SOURCING4GOOD Breadth Trust building & compliance focus Depth Beyond compliance ADVANCED We implement collaborative and transformative activities with our suppliers and customers. Developing flagship projects together. Suppliers are committed to our responsible sourcing practices and we work with them to secure the essential materials and services we need. The supplier made aware of our responsible sourcing practices and expectations. Materials and services begin the "sourced responsibly" journey at the active level, and this is further embedded when assurance proof-points are gathered at the other levels. The supplier is engaged in our due diligence process and risk & impact assessment. COMMITTED ENGAGED ACTIVE Questionnaire (DDQ) digital tool played a central role in allowing us to engage with 226 suppliers, representing 53 of the 158 prioritized Naturals materials families. Committed level At the committed level of the Sourcing4Good programme, we aimed to cover 51 of the prioritised materials families for further verification by the end of 2021. We approach this through factory- and farm-level third party audits in selected supply chains based on internationally recognised standards such as SMETA, FSA and UEBT. For now, we have reached 38% of this target. Some audits had to be postponed either because certain harvest periods had already passed before the launch of Sourcing4Good in April 2021 or because of the continued COVID-19 situation. 2021 should be seen as a transition year: a period of acclimatisation is needed for our teams and suppliers to implement this new approach. Advanced level At the advanced level, we have 24 projects ongoing in our supply chains. Our goal is to increase this number by starting new projects in collaboration with our customers and suppliers in the years to come.
