Supplier Engagement
Our suppliers play a crucial role in achieving our sustainable procurement goals. With your collaboration, we can achieve outstanding results that benefit not only ALPLA but also you, our partners, and our customers.
Integration
ALPLA is on a clear growth trajectory. We invite our key suppliers to join us on this journey. We have developed a new version of our Supplier Code of Conduct, which aligns with ALPLA's corporate social responsibility expectations. This initiative aims to onboard our suppliers, ensuring they are well-informed about ALPLA’s standards.
Transparency
We present a transparent and structured management process to our suppliers and provide detailed guidelines for suppliers and procurement employees, including self-assessment and risk analysis. To learn more, please refer to our Sustainable Procurement Policy which provides comprehensive details and guidelines.
