Supporting an innovative and diverse supply chain

We recognise that our success is predicated on the success of our suppliers and other partners.    As the global leader in sustainable food services and valued experiences, the diversity of our supply chain – as well as its strength, and ability to innovate – are key factors in enabling our business to successfully meet, and exceed, the expectations of our clients.

Our commitment: We will increase diversity in our supply chain and spend over £1 billion with SMEs and diverse suppliers by 2030.

Our relationship with our supply partners is not transactional, it is strategic.


By engaging our supply partners early in the process, we collaborate to ensure that the goods and services we procure and the companies we work with are helping us to drive sustainable and social practices and therefore positive impact.


We believe that by transforming traditional supply management relationships we can, collectively, contribute to the economic, societal and environmental challenges our country faces in a more tangible way.
