As a family business we’re perhaps more aware than most of the need to husband resources and not cause pollution. Sustainability has to be central to our actions and our planning and we’re very aware how factors in our supply chain can affect our environment.
Our aim is to ensure that we don’t deplete resources or cause pollution at a rate greater than the earth’s ability to renew, and we do this is a number of ways. An example is that all our vehicles are fitted with the latest engine technology to be environmentally friendly.
At the same time our driving team are encouraged to collect as many of our delivery boxes as possible for re-use. Any cardboard that cannot be re-used is crushed, baled on site and returned for recycling. We’re also investing in renewable energy sources.
Sustainability is always at the forefront of our minds when dealing with our suppliers. Our accreditation process (we carry BRC Grade A Global Certification) ensures that all concerned use sustainable growing techniques and processes.
