Sustainability at REWE Far East

At REWE Group, we are aware that our actions have an impact on people, animals and the environment, which is why we promote sustainable product lines and ensure fair treatment of our partners and suppliers. We are environmentally and climate-conscious in our actions, committed to a sustainable future for society and aware of our responsibility to our employees.

Sustainability is a core value for the REWE Group. At REWE Far East, we have specific targets and programs to implement and enforce the REWE Group’s sustainability strategy:

Green Products

We are making our ranges more sustainable. For example, by promoting regional produce, offering more organic products, reducing packaging, and actively engaging with the countries of origin for critical raw materials.

Employees

Employees are the key to our success. We are committed to creating a workplace that fosters diversity, equity, and inclusion, ensuring that everyone feels a sense of belonging.

Energy, Climate and Environment

We are committed to protecting the environment and the climate through the economical use of energy and the reduction of harmful emissions.

Social Commitment

In our work supporting communities we rely on strong partners with the experience to provide effective help. We also involve our customers and our employees.

Sustainable Packaging

At REWE Far East, we support the implementation of the REWE Group’s packaging strategy by working with our suppliers to select sustainable packaging materials and replace packaging content.

Green Production Program

REWE Far East launched the Green Production Program in 2018 to monitor and improve the environmental performance of our factories. Some of our factories have participated in our consultancy program to achieve significant environmental improvements.

Grievance Mechanisms

The REWE Group is a member of BSCI and its working group on developing supply chain grievance mechanisms. At REWE Far East, we support the piloting and implementation of these grievance mechanisms so that workers can raise complaints to us when they feel their rights are not respected.

Factory Improvement Training Program

We have launched a capacity building program since 2018 to improve working conditions and promote supplier ownership in strategic factories. Through this program we have achieved significant wage gap reductions and improvement of time record systems at our factories.

Green Products with Recycled Plastics

To support the REWE Group’s circular economy strategy, we are piloting the use of post-consumer recycled plastics in hard good items.

Child Labor Prevention Program

The REWE Group is a member of the Child Rights in Business working group of The Centre for Childs Rights and Business. In 2021, we have signed the Joint Action Pledge on Child Labor Elimination to extend our commitment towards child labor prevention.
