Trusted Supply Chain
Our long-term commitment to transparent sourcing helps us address interest about food provenance and ensure security of supply.
In recent years we have consolidated our supply base and we now have a smaller number of suppliers with whom we work in order to obtain high quality raw materials, and provide the high level of service we, and our customers, require.
Our procurement team continually works towards achieving industry best practice in responsible sourcing. Key suppliers, whether they are based in the UK or overseas, are audited against robust and comprehensive product standards. For example, our sourcing policies take into account our strategy to gradually reduce salt levels in our products.
Northern Foods was the first food manufacturer to deliver policy guidance for its UK and overseas suppliers and agents. These are used to audit them to ensure that, together, we achieve the quality standards required in a sustainable manner.
