Demonstrated progress

Comparing our 2024 statement to our 2025 statement, there have been a number of additional actions taken. Four new policies have been created, including group child labour policy and group remediation policy. We have also targeted action where we know we have high risks. We also have focused on training, completing a workshop with team leaders and managers.

Reported risks and mitigations

• Risk: Moroccan supply chain workers and in particular thier living conditions
• Area: Within your supply chains
• Tier: Tier 1 suppliers Tier 2 suppliers
• Group: Women Migrants Refugees Other vulnerable groups
• Location: Morocco
• Mitigation: Keelings were one of ten commissioning parties of a guidance document created for Decent Worker Accommodation in Morocco’s Fresh Produce Supply Chains. We joined this project as we recognised Morocco as one of our higher risk countries and wanted to be involved in an initiative aiming to improve living conditions for those in fresh produce supply chains.
• Risk: Workers at our Egyptian suppliers
• Location: Egypt
• Mitigation: Within this reporting year we also recognised Egypt to be another of our higher risk sourcing countries. There is an Egyptian Ethical Trade Forum, and so a meeting was arranged between Keelings Technical Teams and the Egyptian Ethical Trade Forum to discuss risks present in Egypt and any mitigation work/projects taking place in the industry. This allowed us to know what potential risks to probe with suppliers.
• Risk: Knowlegde and awareness of modern slavery for those within out own organisation, wanted team leaders and managers to have a deeper understanding of the risks and the importance on spotting signs
• Area: Within your own operations
• Group: Women Migrants Other vulnerable groups
• Location: United Kingdom
• Mitigation: We developed an in-depth, interactive training workshop on Modern Slavery and Labour Exploitation and delivered this to operational managers and team leaders. This training covered what modern slavery and labour exploitation is, statistics, real life cases, how and why it happens, high risk industries, signs to look out for, and how workers should report a suspicion. This training was tailored to those who are most likely to be able to spot potential signs of exploitation within Keelings.
