We believe that strong partnerships are built on trust, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to ethical business practices. This code outlines the expectations we have for our suppliers and their supply chains, covering key areas such as labor rights, environmental stewardship, fair trade, and compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Key Principles of the Supplier Code of Conduct:
1. Ethical Business Conduct
We expect our suppliers to adhere to the highest standards of honesty, integrity, and transparency in all business dealings. This includes the prevention of fraud, corruption, bribery, and any form of unethical behavior.
2. Respect for Human Rights
Suppliers must uphold the dignity and rights of their employees by ensuring fair wages, safe working conditions, and non-discriminatory practices. Forced labor, child labor, and workplace harassment of any kind are strictly prohibited.
3. Sustainability and Environmental Responsibility
Suppliers are required to actively work towards minimizing environmental impact by reducing waste, conserving resources, and embracing sustainable practices. Compliance with all relevant environmental laws and regulations is essential.
4. Fair and Open Competition:
We promote free and fair competition in all markets. Suppliers should avoid any anti-competitive behavior, including price-fixing, monopolistic practices, or collusion with other businesses that undermine market integrity.
5. Compliance with Laws and Regulations:
Suppliers must fully comply with all applicable local, national, and international laws and regulations, including those governing labor, health and safety, trade, environment and the ESG.
6. Continuous Improvement:
We encourage our suppliers to continuously seek ways to improve their operations, whether through innovation, workforce development, or adopting best practices that enhance efficiency and ethical responsibility.
By working together under this Supplier Code of Conduct, we aim to create a supply chain that is not only efficient and innovative but also grounded in values that promote a positive impact on society and the environment. We thank all of our suppliers for their commitment to maintaining these standards, ensuring that together, we achieve long-term success and sustainability.
