On one of her visits to China last year
our Group Commercial Director took part directly in two full-day supplier
audits, helping her to get a deeper understanding of the process and
its limitations. |

We organised a workshop for our UK suppliers with speakers and content
supplied by the Government’s Envirowise programme. Over 30 supplier
representatives attended, and were encouraged to look again at their
own environmental standards. Speakers emphasised the cost savings
and environmental benefits of cutting waste and energy consumption,
and practical workshop sessions helped suppliers to plan their own
improvement campaigns for their own factories. For our part, we believe
that efficient, productive suppliers are good for our business, and
– of course – that environmental improvements shouldn’t
begin and end at the gates of our stores and warehouses. |
