At Florist Greenwich, we are devoted to upholding the highest ethical standards as a leading Greenwich florist serving our local community, including households and businesses. We recognise our responsibility in helping to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking, both within our own operations and throughout our supply chains. Our statement sets out the steps we are taking to combat all forms of exploitative labour and criminal activity related to modern slavery.
Florist Greenwich maintains a strict zero tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking within every aspect of our business. We do not and will not tolerate any forms of forced labour, debt bondage, servitude, child labour, or any exploitation of individuals, anywhere in our operations or supplier networks. This policy is embedded in our internal governance, company values, and daily practices.
As a business dependent on a diverse range of suppliers, we recognise the risk of modern slavery within supply chains. To mitigate this, we conduct comprehensive due diligence before establishing or continuing supplier relationships. Our procedures include evaluating supplier practices, requesting compliance documentation, regularly reviewing supplier performance, and reserving the right to terminate agreements with those failing to adhere to our anti-slavery policy. All new and existing suppliers are made aware of our zero tolerance stance and must commit to upholding the same standards.
We believe that raising awareness and providing our staff with the knowledge to identify and tackle modern slavery risks is essential. All employees at Florist Greenwich are provided with regular training on recognising potential signs of modern slavery, understanding reporting procedures, and appreciating the significance of ethical sourcing. Our training also emphasises the importance of transparency and speaking up if concerns arise.
We encourage all staff, suppliers, and members of our local community to report any suspicions or knowledge of modern slavery practices, whether within our business or across our supply chain. Clear and confidential reporting channels are available so concerns can be raised without fear of reprisal. Every report is investigated thoroughly, and appropriate actions are undertaken immediately where instances of non-compliance or risk are identified.
Florist Greenwich is dedicated to continuously improving our procedures to address modern slavery. We continually monitor our operations and suppliers, identifying and addressing any areas of risk. Each year, this statement and the practices it describes are thoroughly reviewed and updated as necessary, ensuring we respond effectively to new legislation, changing contexts, and stakeholder feedback.
As a trusted florist serving the Greenwich area, we take our broader social responsibilities seriously. Our community expects us to act honestly, transparently, and with integrity. We recognise that combating modern slavery is a collective effort, and commit to partnering with local businesses, households, and organisations to support the movement for ethical business practices. Our ongoing commitment reflects not only legal compliance but our moral duty as a valued business within Greenwich.
