Slavery and Human Trafficking Act

Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

Introduction

We are committed to improving our practices to combat slavery and human trafficking. As part of our commitment to this, we have embedded preventative steps into all aspects of our businesses.

Our business and Organisation’s Structure

Eden Horticulture Limited is privately owned.  Eden Horticulture Limited imports and distributes  products for the hydroponics industry on a business to business basis. It operates from the United Kingdom and it currently has approximately 35 employees.

Our Supply Chains

Eden Horticulture always works to the highest professional standards and complies with all laws, regulations and rules relevant to our business. Our aims are to improve the impact of our business on society. We also expect the same high standards from those businesses with which we work. We are committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in any part of our supply chains or in any part of our business.

Due Diligence Processes for Slavery and Human Trafficking

As part of our initiative to identify and mitigate risk, we have in place systems to:

  • Identify and assess potential risk areas in our supply chains.
  • Reduce the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring in our supply chains by having a close relationship with our suppliers.
  • Monitor potential risk areas in our supply chains.
  • Protect any person who alerts us to the possibility of a violation taking place.

Future Strategy

To ensure a high level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains Eden Horticulture Ltd will make changes over the next financial year to create more understanding. As part of this we will:

  • Produce and implement a modern slavery and human trafficking policy.
  • Contact those businesses within our existing supply chain to seek positive confirmation that they are compliant by gathering information on their current approach to modern slavery.
  • Ensure all members of staff are trained to ensure an understanding of modern slavery and human trafficking.
