Certification for fair trade and responsible supply chains |
Impact, special achievements & commitments | In 2001, Andean Valley began a search for strategies that guarantee sustainability creating the "Andean Valley Suppliers Program ”, which is a consensual association of several producers who voluntarily start organic and sustainable activity on their plots. Through Fair For Life certification, it seeks to guarantee that producers and workers in its supply chain receive fair remuneration for their work, that it is carried out in adequate and respectful conditions and in a sustainable environment. In addition, it intends to encourage its suppliers and customers to adopt a coherent and pragmatic approach to development and responsibility, both in the social and environmental fields. | |||||||
