How we work with our suppliers
Since Frugi was born in 2004 we have always believed passionately about caring for people and the planet. We want to be completely ethical, honest and transparent in everything we do. Ensuring our suppliers are operating at a high ethical standard and creating the right environment for the people who work for Frugi is very important to us.
We not only expect our suppliers to obey the law but we also want them to respect the wellbeing of their employees, communities and the environment in which they work.
We regularly visit our suppliers to make sure that everything is ship shape and they are working to the Frugi Code of Conduct…
We take great pride in the relationships we develop with the companies and people who supply our goods and services and we aim to build long standing partnerships with our suppliers by working fairly and honestly.
