3.5 Code of Conduct for Business Partners

At Nutreco, we do not turn a blind eye to social sustainability or to our corporate responsibility. Recently, the new Nutreco Code of Conduct for Business Partners was introduced. This updated code of conduct enables us to engage with business partners on sustainability, compliance and integrity issues.

This updated code of conduct enables us to engage with business partners on sustainability, compliance and integrity issues. It ensures that they align with what Nutreco stands for; i.e., feeding the world in a responsible and sustainable way. The Code includes human rights clauses and/or human rights screening. We will also take a more active approach to ensure all business partners are aware of and comply to our expectations. In addition to incorporating the code of conduct in our major contracts, we will also regularly communicate its contents. One of these communications will be an annual e-mail to all our suppliers. This will contain the most recent version of the Nutreco Code of Conduct for Business Partners, to remind suppliers of our expectations.

"This updated code of conduct enables us to engage with business partners on sustainability, compliance and integrity issues."

Code of Conduct for Business Partners

We recognise that our purpose can only be achieved with the cooperation of our business partners. Therefore, we have developed a Code of Conduct for Business Partners, which enables us to engage with our Business Partners on sustainability, compliance and integrity issues.
