Sustainable trading, social responsibility
We consider our selected suppliers’ credentials in terms of sustainable development practices and avoid suppliers that take advantage of low production costs in developing nations.

An ethical policy that takes a stance.
Borg & Overström will not trade with countries that violate human rights. We will not trade with suppliers who engage with forced, underage or involuntary labour. Discrimination based on the protected characteristics is not acceptable, regardless of the territory of the supplier or partner.
