SECURING GOOD WORKING CONDITIONS

ALL NEW PARTNERSHIPS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING CERTIFIED.

Group Sommet is also committed to partnering with companies that share our values of respect for people and the environment, and who are ready to collaborate with us to improve their processes.

OFFICE EMPLOYEES AT Group Sommet engage directly with our business partners to develop positive relationships, analyze their performance against our Sustainability Commitment, and assist them in making changes through various programs and activities.

They have close contacts with not just our commercial partners, but also non-governmental organizations, experts, stakeholders, and local governments, which means they understand the challenges and how to achieve improvements in a local context. Once we’ve established a relationship with a supplier, we work with them to enhance their sustainability performance through training and by rewarding them with greater orders of items if they do well.
