At Flowers Gidea Park, we recognise the ongoing risks of modern slavery and human trafficking within today’s global supply chains. As a trusted florist serving the Gidea Park area, providing floral services to households and local businesses, we are committed to upholding the highest ethical standards and fulfilling our responsibility to our community. We operate a strict zero tolerance policy towards any form of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking within our business operations and supply chains.
Environmentally and ethically responsible sourcing is central to our business ethos. We carry out due diligence on all new suppliers and review our existing supplier relationships regularly, prioritising transparency and ethical compliance. This includes assessing suppliers’ own policies on modern slavery, evaluating risk factors within their countries and industries of operation, and seeking assurances that they uphold fair and legal labour practices. We expect our suppliers to comply with all relevant anti-slavery and human trafficking laws, and we require them to confirm that their operations—and those of their direct supply chain—are conducted free of modern slavery.
We believe that awareness is a powerful tool to help prevent modern slavery. Our staff are provided with training and information to help them recognise the signs of modern slavery and understand what actions to take if they identify a risk or concern. Team members involved in procurement and supplier relationships are particularly supported with guidance, so that vigilance and ethical diligence underpin every stage of our procurement process. We encourage ongoing learning to adapt to emerging risks within the floral industry and broader supply chains.
We are fully committed to maintaining transparent and accessible procedures for reporting any suspicion or evidence of modern slavery. Employees, suppliers, and customers are encouraged to raise concerns without fear of reprisal. Reports can be made directly to management, who will ensure each matter is responded to with confidentiality and seriousness. If any instance of modern slavery is identified, immediate action will be taken to safeguard affected individuals and to terminate relationships with responsible parties.
We recognise that our fight against modern slavery is a continuous process. Our policies, supplier due diligence processes, and staff training resources are subject to annual review, with adjustments made to reflect changes in risks, regulations, and best practices. We work proactively to identify new ways to strengthen our approach and to minimise the risk of modern slavery in every part of our operations.
As a valued florist in Gidea Park, we have a duty not only to deliver quality products and services but also to act as a responsible business that positively impacts our local community. This Modern Slavery Statement demonstrates our unwavering commitment to fairness, respect, and transparency across our supply chain. We thank our customers and partners for supporting our efforts as we continue to take a stand against modern slavery and strive to make an ethical difference.
