At Spartan we are focused on growing our business responsibly. We care about the sustainability of the environment we live in, the customers we serve, the community we live in and for the social impact we create. Being a good corporate citizen is one of our core business values and we exhibit this in many ways.
Ethical Sourcing
We have always worked closely with our suppliers to ensure we ethically source our products. More recently we have developed and published our own Ethical Sourcing Policy.
