About the data
The regionalisation of suppliers ensures the marketing of fresh and local products. In addition, it allows products that are specific to a given locality to be made known to the rest of the country, thus adapting to the demands of different customers. It also reduces emissions by shortening transport distances and promotes the local economy. Here we address the proportion of the company's purchasing of local or regional products either in terms of the number of local suppliers or the amount in � of the purchase based on the GRI 204-1 standard Proportion of spending on local suppliers.
Companies often publish data on the ratio of their local or national suppliers to their total suppliers. In the case of supermarkets, depending on the activities and services offered by the company at group level, in addition to food, drugstore and perfumery products, their suppliers may include textiles, hardware, electronics, etc.

Methodology
The% can be on the number of total suppliers, the assortment of references / products or on the total purchase expense, leaving us with the highest figure in case the company publishes a% in relation to more than one variable.
We will assign a YES if the company publishes any data on the proportion of products of national origin (number of national suppliers, purchases from national suppliers or assortment of national origin over the total and this is greater than 80%. In case of publishing more than one, we will keep the highest
If the company does not publish this data directly, we assess with a YES if we can at least calculate the ratio and this is higher than 80%. In this case we should see published the total number of suppliers, purchases in � or products purchased and the number of national suppliers (purchases in �, products, ...).
We will assign a NO if the company does not publish any data in this regard, or it does publish it or it is possible to calculate it, but this is less than 80% or else.
