We operate a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery, human trafficking, child labour, and all forms of exploitation. This commitment is consistent across every part of our business, from sourcing flowers and gifts to delivering arrangements to our valued customers. We expect the same high ethical standards from all suppliers, contractors, and business partners.

Supplier Due Diligence

Understanding the possible risks in the floral industry supply chain, we conduct due diligence on all our suppliers before forming partnerships and review them regularly. Our checks include, but are not limited to, ensuring suppliers have appropriate policies against modern slavery and adhere to national and international labour standards. We favour working with suppliers who demonstrate transparency throughout their own supply chains.

If we discover evidence of modern slavery or suspect unethical practices, we act promptly. This includes investigating incidences, reporting violations to relevant authorities where required, and discontinuing business relationships where compliance with our values cannot be assured.

Staff Training and Awareness

We recognise that awareness and vigilance are crucial to combating modern slavery. All members of our team, from management to delivery personnel, receive training to recognise signs of exploitation, understand the risk factors, and know their responsibilities. We reinforce these principles during induction and through regular refreshers, ensuring that the issue stays at the forefront of our operations.
