Building strong partnerships with our suppliers contributes towards better value chain management while mitigating the risks associated with potential disruptions. We prioritise establishing business relationships with those suppliers grounded on ethical, social and environmental principles1, thus mitigating the risks of shortcomings in product quality and availability, lack of financial liquidity throughout the supply chain and tense and/or inappropriate negotiation practices. By partnering with suppliers that share our values, we are working together to help achieve the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda.
1 These principles are set out in the Jerónimo Martins Group’s Sustainable Sourcing Policy, Code of Conduct for Suppliers, Code of Conduct and Anti-Corruption Policy available on our website.
