Corporate social responsibility at HL
“If you are very strong, you also have to be very kind.” – Pippi LongstockingsA quote from a child’s book might not be what you expect to be greeted with on the CSR section of a global retail merchandising company. But as a leader in the industry (and proud of our Swedish origin – thanks, Astrid Lindgren!), it resonates with our work. We are big enough to make an impact, and we lead with responsibility to make sure it’s a good one.
We build our operations on a solid, common ground, consisting of our behaviours, vision and mission. This ground is laid out in our Corporate Responsibility Policy, Code of Conduct and Code of Conduct for Suppliers (more on this further down!).
