ShelterBox is committed to delivering quality to its beneficiaries, and to being accountable to its donors and supporters.
This means deriving the maximum value from our supply chain, ensuring ethical supply and establishing sustainable, productive relationships with our suppliers.
Information for suppliers and procurement opportunities can be found here.
We require all our suppliers, regardless of contract value, to comply with the ShelterBox Supplier Code of Conduct. Unless negotiated otherwise, our Standard Terms and Conditions of Purchase apply.
Our Commitment to Ethical Standards.
At ShelterBox we understand the importance of clear and accessible guidelines for our suppliers. That’s why we offer two versions of our Supplier Code of Conduct: a comprehensive version and a LITE version.
The comprehensive version provides detailed guidelines and is ideal for suppliers involved in complex, high-risk, or long-term projects, ensuring a thorough understanding of our standards.
The LITE version, on the other hand, is a streamlined, accessible document designed for smaller suppliers or those engaged in low-risk, short-term engagements. This dual approach allows us to maintain high ethical standards across all levels of our supply chain while ensuring that the requirements are clear and manageable for suppliers of varying sizes and capacities.
