Responsible Business at Sands

Made Today, Sold Today is our food promise. Responsible business is the wider picture: how we source, manage waste, support people and keep the business accountable. We are clear about what is in place now and what still needs work.
Food Creates More

How We Run the Business Matters Too

Our work is organised across four areas: environmental impact, people and community, governance, and continuous improvement.

1
Environmental Impact

How we source ingredients, manage food waste and packaging, use energy and monitor our deliveries.

2
People and Community

How we support our team, create opportunities and work with the organisations we have chosen to back.

3
Governance

The policies, checks and supplier standards that help us meet our responsibilities and make sound decisions.

4
Making Progress

We measure what we can, review the results and update our priorities as the business and expectations change.
