Fornecimento sustentável

Sustainable sourcing is more than ingredients and packaging; it brings together all of the elements needed to make the world a fairer place to live and work.
The ultimate goal is to build strong, long-term relationships with suppliers. Improving performance in environmental, social and ethical issues is becoming a major part of the overall process. Social responsibility covers many areas and whether an organisation is legally mandated to have a code of conduct or not, every organisation should have one. A code has value as both an internal guideline and an external statement of corporate values and commitments.
These commitments are a good starting point to ensure that everyone in the supply chain is treated fairly and may include things like real living wages, participation in Fair Trade, no discrimination rules, regular employment is provided among others. Finding out if the company you buy from has these in place will tell you a lot about the way a company is run and whether they place as much value on people and the planet as they do on profit.
