Sourcing and supply chain

"We aim to behave ethically and with integrity when sourcing products and dealing with our suppliers."

Sustainably sourced and ethically sourced products raise important concerns for our stakeholders and the retail sector generally.

We are committed to policies that reduce the environmental and social impacts of the products we source. In recognition of this, Homebase was the first UK DIY retailer to receive FSC chain of custody certification.

We remain committed to our programme of ethical audits across our supply chain.

A product and supply chain group meets quarterly to focus on sourcing from a social, ethical and environmental perspective. This group reports into the waste, energy, products and supply chain management group, which is chaired by the Group Commercial Director.
