As a responsible retailer operating in 31 countries and territories, the decisions we make in our procurement processes can have a considerable impact on helping to build a more sustainable supply chain.
We hold our suppliers to high standards and expect them to conduct business in a manner that aligns with our values and corporate governance. To this end, in 2024, we implemented a new Supplier Code of Conduct which applies to all our suppliers, vendors, service providers, agents, brokers and manufactures.

The world is becoming increasingly connected every day. As the actions of one company can have an impact on people and societies all over the world, everyone needs to take responsibility beyond their own operations.
Responsible procurement
The choices we make regarding what products and services to procure have considerable effects on the future of a more sustainable supply chain.
Sustainable Finance
Our commitment to sustainability extends to the financing of our operations via the issuance of our Green Bonds, the first of its kind by a convenience and fuel retailer, which invests over US $300 million in projects that support sustainable solutions.
Supporting the communities where we operate
Our company and our team members take immense pride in contributing to the betterment of the lives of those around us. We firmly believe that acts of kindness and solidarity can create positive, enduring changes in society.
