Watch the Appetite for Action webinar
Our Appetite for Action campaign is looking at how food waste levels, and therefore carbon emissions and net zero ambitions, are being impacted by the current global issues around supply chain resilience.
Watch the webinar, featuring experts from WRAP and WWF, to explore why prioritising a net zero strategy and tackling food waste will ultimately help navigate supply chain issues and learn how we can all build more resilient food supply chains.

Creating resilience in the food supply chain: the role of food waste
Our Appetite for Action campaign has recently looked at how challenges to supply chain resilience are impacting food waste levels. Learn more about the work we are doing with suppliers to combat this.


Supporting our SME suppliers
We are passionate about supporting and developing our supply chain and to work with SMEs, micro SMEs and social enterprises, supporting them to grow their business. This group currently represents over half of our core supply chain and accounts for 44% of our total spend.

Actively supporting local and national charity networks
We promote and drive fundraising and donations to charities in the communities we serve. During the Covid-19 pandemic, our teams went above and beyond to ensure that, where sites were closing, food didn’t go to waste and instead went to supporting their local communities.


Human rights, animal welfare and sourcing policies
We hold ourselves accountable to behave responsibly in the way each of us does business with our clients, partners and suppliers to diminish adverse impacts that may result from our activities. This is why we put in place policies and codes to frame our practices and expected behaviours around key issues such as respect for human rights, animal welfare and sourcing policies.
Creating a positive impact on society and our environment

Our 2021 social impact pledge
