SUSTAINABLE AND
RESPONSIBLE PURCHASING
At Leclerc, we believe that every sourcing decision has an impact. That’s why we integrate ethical and responsible purchasing practices throughout our value chain. By promoting sustainability, transparency, and traceability, we help build a food system that better respects both the environment and human rights
Action Plan
3 KEY STEPS
Defining Objectives
Implementing concrete initiatives to reduce social and environmental impacts at every link in the supply chain
Creating a Code of Conduct
Establishing clear standards to ensure our suppliers respect fundamental human rights and fair working conditions.
Developing a Purchasing Policy
Prioritizing sustainable agriculture, low-impact materials, local partnerships, regulatory compliance, and continuous improvement.
What It Changes in Practice
Thanks to this rigorous approach, we actively combat deforestation, forced labour, and child labour, reduce our environmental footprint, and support local communities. Our purchasing decisions become powerful levers for a fairer and more sustainable economy.
