Long-term sustainability

Customers
We use a feedback and review system called Trustpilot, which surveys and request reviews from every customer with whom we conclude an order. The company aims to personally respond to any negative review or queries within a twenty-four hour period. The information on volume of surveys and reviews completed as well as an aggregate of our customers evaluation of our business and services is made freely available on our websites.
Suppliers
We work closely with all suppliers to ensure all those in our supply chain comply with our ethics and take great effort to ensure our suppliers are aware of our expectations, both individually and via our membership of Fortis. We achieve this through actively communicating with our suppliers throughout all stages of our relationship with them, setting the right tone and culture within our organization and with third parties including suppliers, and ensuring that we have robust policies and processes in place that are inclusive of the requirement to carry out appropriate risk based due diligence on our suppliers.
