South Kensington Flowers is committed to preventing all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking in our business operations and supply chains. As a trusted florist serving local households and businesses in South Kensington, we recognise our responsibility to uphold the highest ethical standards and to support efforts addressing these critical human rights issues.
We have a zero tolerance approach to modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour and child labour. We expect the same high standards from our suppliers, contractors, and all our business partners. Any indication or evidence of abusive labour practices within our business or supply chain is treated with the utmost seriousness, and we will act decisively to investigate and address them.
Our commitment to ethical sourcing is at the heart of how we operate. We carefully select suppliers and require them to share our values and commitment to preventing modern slavery. Before engaging with new suppliers, we conduct appropriate diligence, which may include:
We communicate our expectations clearly to all suppliers and reserve the right to terminate any relationship with those who do not meet our standards or fail to comply with anti-slavery laws and regulations.
We provide training for all staff to recognise signs of modern slavery and to understand the risks that may be present in both our own operations and in our supply chain. Training covers the definition and forms of modern slavery, how to report concerns, and reinforces our zero tolerance policy. We encourage open dialogue so every team member feels empowered to raise issues without fear of reprisal.
South Kensington Flowers encourages all employees, suppliers and other business partners to report any concerns or suspicions about modern slavery. Clear and confidential channels are available for raisings concerns, and all reports are taken seriously and investigated thoroughly. We are committed to protecting whistleblowers and ensuring that anyone raising a concern can do so without risk to their employment or relationship with us.
This Modern Slavery Statement will be reviewed and updated annually to ensure it remains relevant and effective. We will reflect on any incidents, changes in legislation, and best practices, updating our processes as necessary to maintain our ethical commitments.
As a valued florist in the South Kensington community, serving households and businesses, we understand the trust our customers place in us. Our Modern Slavery Statement reflects our ongoing responsibility to act with integrity and respect for all individuals in our business and supply chain.
