Sustainability

One word, many different perspectives. As a trade and tourism group, we are aware of our special responsibility toward people and the environment. For us, sustainable corporate governance means doing our utmost best for employees and customers, but it also goes much further.

We are aware of our responsibilities and are committed to sustainable action

At REWE Group, we understand that our actions have an impact on people, animals, and the environment, which is why we promote sustainable product lines and ensure fair treatment of our partners and suppliers. We are environmentally aware and climate-conscious in our actions, committed to ensuring a sustainable future for society, and mindful of our responsibilities towards our employees. Sustainability is not a fleeting trend at REWE Group. Rather, it is a fundamental element of our business strategy.

Compliance with Germany’s Supply Chain Act

The aim of the Supply Chain Act is to afford better protection of human rights in global supply chains. A holistic view of the supply chain has been a key element of our sustainability strategy for years. At the REWE Group, we are committed to ensuring that there are no violations of labour, social, and environmental standards in our supply chains, especially at the cultivation and processing stages.

We implement the provisions of the Supply Chain Act within the REWE Group as required.
