Core principles for sustainable procurement
Sustainable procurement practices are key to enabling living wages for worker and living incomes for farmers. By adopting sustainable procurement and responsible contracting, companies can move away from putting all the risks on one actor and instead create a model of shared responsibility.
At IDH, we provide support to businesses in implementing sustainable procurement practices that balance their commercial goals with fairer purchasing arrangements. This approach helps improve the livelihoods and resilience of farmers and workers. We have developed five core principles to guide your sustainable procurement efforts.
