Responsible procurement policy
At Motel Centre-Ville, we believe that our procurement choices have a significant impact on the environment, society, and the economy. As such, we are committed to integrating responsible purchasing practices into all our business activities. This policy aims to guide our purchasing decisions to promote sustainability, ethics, and social responsibility throughout our supply chain.
Guiding principles
Reducing Environmental Impact: Select suppliers and products that minimize ecological footprint by prioritizing sustainable materials, eco-friendly production practices, and innovative solutions that reduce waste and emissions.
Promoting Ethics and Human Rights: Work with partners who respect workers' rights, adhere to fair labor standards, and are committed to eliminating forced labor, discrimination, or exploitation.
Supporting Local Economies: Favor local suppliers and small businesses to stimulate local economic development and reduce transportation distances.
Transparency and Traceability: Ensure complete traceability of our supply chains to guarantee that the products and services we purchase meet our ethical and environmental standards.
Key actions
Supplier Evaluation: We conduct a rigorous evaluation of our suppliers, considering environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. Suppliers must demonstrate compliance with international standards on human rights, working conditions, environmental stewardship, and anti-corruption.
Product Selection: We prioritize products certified by recognized ecological or ethical labels and encourage the use of recycled or recyclable materials, as well as products designed for long-term durability.
Collaboration and Engagement: We work closely with our suppliers to improve sustainability practices throughout the supply chain, sharing knowledge, offering training, and supporting social responsibility initiatives.
Risk Reduction: We identify and manage potential risks associated with our procurement, including environmental, social, and governance risks, by implementing regular monitoring and control mechanisms.
