"Our supply chains
Our supply chains include the sourcing of raw materials and finished products for the purposes of providing food and drink, goods and equipment used in our pubs and hotels and our support office, contactors, sub-contractors, and professional service suppliers. In total we have around 1,000 suppliers ranging in size and complexity. In most cases we aim to develop long term relationships with our key suppliers and to rationalise the number of suppliers we partner with, but we do have a large number of smaller contractors who service the day-to-day requirements across our estate. We seek to maintain open communication with our contractors and suppliers regarding our values and expectations."
