Doing business with a conscience

As a high volume business, we’re well aware that we turn over a large amount of consumables and waste every day. With this in mind, we’re working hard to balance our output by working with experts and advisors to improve our practices.

To support this objective, the De Vere Sustainability Policy applies to all De Vere Group activities, products and services, and we’re working towards BS 8901 accreditation in this area.

Some of the measures we have in place include:

  • Respect for our environment by reducing packaging, waste, food waste and energy use
  • Sourcing with integrity, including local produce where possible
  • Supporting the growth and development of young people through internal development programmes and our De Vere Academy
  • Having a positive impact in the communities in which we operate, through job creation, work experience and supporting local community initiatives

The De Vere Sustainability Policy is directed at Board level and is reviewed regularly.
