Supplier Resource Guide_V1 3
Our success as a company has always been linked to the success of the thousands of farmers and suppliers who grow and produce our products. Whether it’s coffee, tea, cocoa or manufactured goods & services, we’re committed to offering ethically purchased and responsibly produced products of the highest quality.
The Starbucks Ethical Sourcing Program for Manufactured Goods and Services was initiated in 2006 to evaluate, recognize and reward suppliers and factories producing goods purchased by Starbucks. Over the past several years the program has developed and evolved, leading to the release of resources to support our global supply chain. Changes in the program enable supplier ownership, shift of information management to identify and recognize top performers, and expand support for capacity building and training.
Starbucks Ethical Sourcing Purpose: Integrate socially responsible practices throughout Starbucks global supply chain to use our size for good.
• EDUCATE suppliers on our ethical sourcing program
• ENGAGE suppliers in best practice sharing and performance improvement
• MITIGATE risk and protect the brand – enable communication and marketing for other Global Responsibility initiatives
Starbucks Approach to Ethical Sourcing
• Transparency
• Continuous Improvement
• Supplier Ownership
Highlights of the Starbucks Ethical Sourcing Program
• Enables supplier ownership of the assessment and continuous improvement model
• Includes continuous improvement support
• Provides development and training offerings
Components of the Starbucks Ethical Sourcing Assessment Process
• Pre-Qualification and Facility Review
• Gap Analysis (third party assessment)
• Continuous Improvement and Facility Development
This resource guide outlines expectations for supplier ownership, detailed overview of the assessment process, and guidelines for continuous improvement.
Introduction to Ethical Sourcing
Supplier Resource Guide_V1 4
Starbucks expectation is that suppliers own and drive the Ethical Sourcing process within their own business practices and within the facilities they choose to manufacture Starbucks product.
Expectations of Suppliers
Visibility to all factories producing products
Criteria for facility selection
Dedicated resources responsible for social and environmental performance
Purchasing practices that support adherence to standards
Social and Environmental Standards
Communication of Standards and expectations to supply chain partners
Monitoring protocol to identify gaps between facility performance and standards
Resources to support Continuous Improvement efforts at factories
Pre-Qualification Guidance (see reference materials for complete form) – ensure the following steps are complete prior to introducing a new facility for Starbucks production
1. Ensure facility has received and understands the Starbucks Standards for Manufactured Goods and Services, Starbucks Zero Tolerance Standards (highlight transparency), and understands the assessment process
2. Schedule a call or visit with the facility. To ensure readiness for a successful assessment, validate the following topics
o Determine length of time that facility has been operating (ideally, a minimum of 12 months); if this is a new facility, operating history should be a minimum of 3 months with access to full documentation on work place policies and procedures, attendance records, payroll records, production records, etc…
o If the manufacturing site has been through a social and environmental assessment within the past 12 months, review the results with the facility and understand what continuous improvement efforts are underway
o Ensure facility is committed to being open and transparent
o Review the assessment process and validate access to all areas of the facility and employees for confidential interviews
o Confirm there are effective time keeping systems to capture all hours worked
Best Practices
1. Consult leading industry efforts such as GSCP and SAI Social Fingerprint
o GSCP (Global Social Compliance Programme) http://www.gscpnet.com/
o SAI Social Fingerprint (Social Accountability International) http://socialfingerprint.org/
2. Identify risk prior to the assessment
o Save the company money by determining if the facility can meet certain standards. If the facility cannot meet certain standards, the assessment should be postponed.
