Supplier Management
As a sustainable creator of revitalising work environments, we aim to lead the way in the circular economy. For circular business operations, we rely on partnerships with other businesses that share the same circular goals. Collaborating with partners, suppliers and clients across our value chain allows us to make a real difference together.
For ethical business practices, we expect both our own employees and our partners and suppliers across the value chain to act with honesty and integrity . In addition to our human rights and environmental policies, we have a Business Partner Code of Conduct. This sets out, for example, that suppliers must provide employees with a safe and healthy work environment and comply with applicable health, safety and environmental laws and regulations.
Collaboration across our value chain is essential for Ahrend’s success and is critical to our circular approach. We encourage companies to sign up via our Supplier Relation Management (SRM) system to explore new sustainable collaborations. SRM allows us to track suppliers from the onboarding to the contracting phase. All communication, information and certifications are documented and shared with the Sales organisation, ensuring transparency throughout the supply chain.
