The Sustainable Procurement Pledge (SPP) is a pro-bono community of those committed to embedding sustainability in to their procurement practices - and sharing knowledge and tools of how to do so.
Our Purpose
We are Procurement.
Sustainability in supply chains is our responsibility.
We will build a sustainable future for people and our planet.
Our Vision
All supply chains across the world have embedded sustainable procurement practices by 2030.
Listen to the co-founders' message
Bertrand Conquéret
Bertrand is President of Henkel’s Global Supply Chain B.V. and Global Chief Procurement Officer (CPO) of Henkel AG & Co. KGaA.
