Locality

Promote local and inclusive purchasing to contribute to economic development in the regions in which we operate while supporting the inclusion of the most vulnerable people in society.

Clariane’s purchasing policy aims to contribute to the development of the regions in which the Group operates, promote the inclusion of marginalised or disabled workers and to limit its impact on the environment.

In 2023, Clariane made 79% of its purchases with preferred suppliers with products or services of national origin.

In 2023, for the Group’s facilities in France, 82% of the food purchased was of French origin and 17% was sourced from the same administrative region as that in which the facility
is located. Particular attention is paid to the proximity of fruit and vegetable supplies: 36% of fruit and vegetable purchases (excluding exotic fruit) come from within a radius of less than 150 km (200 km in the Île-de-France region) of the depot responsible for supplying the site.

In addition, 40% of the Group’s purchases were made from SMEs (small and medium-sized businesses).
