Developing good farming practices
Our belief
The evolution of agricultural production methods is a key to controlling the environmental impact and health security of agricultural foodstuffs. This is why we, at PAUL, support supply chains that comply with published, recognised standards in best farming practice.
Our initiatives
- Obtain flours from supply chains that respect good farming practices, and do not use insecticides after harvest
- Source chocolate, tea and coffee from sustainable suppliers
- Seek out suppliers of fruit and vegetables grown according to recognised good farming practice specifications
- Promote sustainable fishing and responsible seafood farming
Our goals
- To have 100% of our bakers’ flours sourced from sustainable suppliers from 2021
- To source 100% of our teas, chocolate and coffee from fair trade suppliers by 2025
- To source salads only from sustainable suppliers by 2023
