* Negotiations with the Group’s strategic suppliers are conducted centrally by the Group’s Purchasing Department. At the end of 2021, 84% of our headquarter purchases were made from suppliers committed to a CSR policy and 77% of the Group’s strategic suppliers were committed to a CSR policy. We aim to continue these efforts by rolling out our approach at Group level with a target of 90% of Group purchases made from suppliers committed to a CSR policy by 2030 and 90% of strategic suppliers committed to a CSR policy by 2030.

2021 TARGET

* A supplier is considered significant if it meets at least one of the following criteria: - in the Top 80% in terms of purchasing expenses; - in the Top 80% in terms of volumes; - presenting a potential CSR risk. In 2021, 360 suppliers were considered significant, representing 86% of the Group’s purchases. A supplier follow-up and invitation campaign was carried out. Thus, 56% of them were subject to an external CSR audit or evaluation during the year. 102 suppliers (representing 34% of headquarter purchases) are assessed by EcoVadis with an average score of 60%. 73 suppliers (representing 40% of headquarter purchases) were audited according to the SMETA standard by an independent third party. 49 suppliers (representing 40% of headquarter purchases) were audited on site by MANE with an average score of 60%. 27 suppliers were audited by an independent third party according to a standard other than SMETA or EcoVadis (for example For Life, UEBT, Rainforest Alliance, etc.). We therefore exceeded our 2021 target by 50% (which, initially, only concerned headquarter suppliers). We set the same target of 50% by 2030, but this time at Group level, which includes the other production sites abroad.

ASSESS THE CSR PERFORMANCE OF OUR SUPPLIERS

In order to ensure that our suppliers comply with fundamental CSR principles, we have incorporated CSR criteria into our process for selecting and monitoring the performance of our suppliers. We developed a methodology for assessing their CSR practices using two different approaches: ■ access to the results of the CSR assessments of our suppliers via the SEDEX and EcoVadis platforms; ■ self-assessment support for suppliers less advanced in the process. MANE is a member of the SEDEX and EcoVadis collaborative platforms. Our suppliers are therefore invited to share their SMETA audit report and/ or their EcoVadis scorecard. If they are not present on these platforms or if they do not wish to join them, for their own reasons, we provide them with a self-assessment questionnaire. This tool was designed to help them
