Sustainable Procurement Basic Policy
The Nisshinbo Group's Business Conduct Guidelines, which includes "Thorough-Going Compliance" and "Fair and Transparent Business Practices," stipulates that the Group will always act fairly and with integrity in a wide range of social rules and corporate ethics, and that the Group will respect its suppliers as equal partners through sound business relationships, aiming for sustainable transactions throughout the supply chain.
To address sustainability throughout the Group's supply chain, Nisshinbo Group established the "Nisshinbo Group Sustainable Procurement Basic Policy" in 2015, under aspects such as legal compliance, fair trade, information security, environment protection, human rights, safety & health, and quality & safety. The basic policy was revised in 2024 after a review in response to recent social demands. Furthermore, we established the "Nisshinbo Group Sustainable Procurement Guidelines."
