SUPPLY AND VALUE CHAIN
Every year, we need to procure thousands of different items to run our operations, from engine parts to hand soap, crew uniforms to food and drink. Then we must get it on to our fleet of ships, which are constantly on the move.Our procurement teams do a phenomenal job of building relationships with suppliers all over the world to satisfy our requirements, all the while prioritising sustainable and ethical choices.
Sustainable Procurement Committee
We have a committee dedicated to making sure that our approach to procurement has a positive impact on society and minimises damage to the environment. Part of the committee’s remit is to standardise our approach so we can use similar KPIs across our business. For instance, we are introducing best practice approaches that mean that the teams that procure food and beverages will operate in a similar way to our technical procurement teams. We continue to look for ways to simplify the extensive logistics required to ensure the timely delivery of products to our ships.
