Flowers Pimlico is steadfast in upholding the highest ethical standards throughout all areas of our business. As a trusted Pimlico florist providing arrangements for households and businesses, we recognise our responsibility to foster an environment where respect for human rights is non-negotiable. Our zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery reflects our dedication not only to our valued customers, but also to the wider community and every individual whose work touches our supply chain.
We categorically oppose all forms of modern slavery, including forced labour, human trafficking, and child labour. Flowers Pimlico’s zero tolerance policy is at the core of our operations, ensuring that under no circumstances are such practices tolerated by staff, suppliers, or business partners. We expect all those who work with us to uphold these same uncompromising standards.
Recognising the importance of transparency and responsibility, we have established a robust supplier due diligence process. All prospective and existing suppliers are assessed for their commitment to combatting modern slavery. This assessment includes reviewing suppliers’ own policies, requesting detailed information about their labour standards, and requiring evidence of compliance with relevant laws and ethical codes. Where appropriate, we may conduct further risk assessments and require additional undertakings. Our ongoing relationship with suppliers is dependent on their upholding of ethical practices aligned with our values.
Continuous education is vital for the prevention of modern slavery. All staff at Flowers Pimlico, including both new starters and existing employees, receive guidance on recognising the signs of exploitation and understanding the risks associated with modern slavery in the floral industry. Our training emphasises the role each team member plays in safeguarding our standards, ensuring everyone is empowered to identify and report any suspicions.
We are committed to maintaining an open, transparent culture where any concerns can be raised safely. Any staff member, supplier, or third party who suspects unethical behaviour or possible modern slavery within our business or supply chain is encouraged to report it. Reports are handled confidentially and are investigated thoroughly. We do not tolerate retaliation against anyone who raises a concern in good faith.
Combatting modern slavery is an ongoing commitment that requires vigilance and review. Each year, Flowers Pimlico undertakes a comprehensive evaluation of our policies and practices related to modern slavery. This annual review allows us to respond to emerging risks, continually improve our processes, and reinforce our commitment to ethical trading. We also remain abreast of developments in legislation and industry best practices, ensuring our approach remains effective and compliant.
As a florist rooted in the Pimlico community, serving the needs of local households and businesses, Flowers Pimlico is dedicated to acting with integrity and purpose. Our approach to prevent modern slavery is integral to our identity and reputation. We believe that through collaboration, education, and transparency, we can play our part in eradicating modern slavery and promoting human dignity throughout our industry.
