Modern slavery statement and supplier due diligence

Supply chain

Modern slavery and supplier due diligence

Our voluntary statement on preventing modern slavery and forced labour in the supply chains we specify for UK cosmetics launches.

This is a voluntary statement for the financial year ending 31 December 2026. Our turnover is below the 36 million GBP threshold in section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, so we are not legally required to publish a statutory statement. We publish one because UK retailers and brand owners ask for the same evidence from every party in their chain.

Area	Our position	Evidence we hold
Structure	A development consultancy coordinating formulation, packaging and manufacturing partners. We do not own factories.	Supplier register and scopes of work
Supply chain	Raw material suppliers, contract manufacturers, packaging converters, laboratories and logistics providers named per project.	Approved supplier list
Policy	Written confirmation of compliance with the Modern Slavery Act and equivalent local law before a site is specified.	Signed supplier declarations
Risk	Country, sector and subcontracting risk rated before onboarding; higher-risk sites are escalated for review.	Risk assessment sheet

Onboarding

Every partner completes a due diligence questionnaire covering labour sourcing, recruitment fees, right-to-work checks, subcontracting and whistleblowing routes before we put them in front of a client.

Contract terms

Our supplier terms require compliance with the Act, allow reasonable audit access and require the supplier to flow the same obligations down to its own subcontractors.

Ongoing checks

Declarations are refreshed annually and whenever a site, ownership or country of manufacture changes. A reported concern pauses new orders until it is investigated.

Escalation

A concern can be raised by any team member or client. It goes to the founder, is recorded with the action taken, and is reported to the client whose project is affected.

Legal status

This is a voluntary statement, not a section 54 statutory statement. It is approved by the founder and reviewed annually, or sooner if the supply chain changes materially.

Approval

Approved by the founder, who is accountable for supplier due diligence and for the accuracy of this statement. A signed copy and the supporting supplier pack are available to UK buyers on request; see legal and company information.
