Louise Kingham CBE, Senior vice president, Europe and head of country, UK

Supply chain case studies

In 2023 we spent a total of £5.3 billion with UK suppliers. From Southampton to Shetland, we worked with a wide and diverse range of businesses, from start-ups to companies with over 100 years’ experience. These case studies shine a spotlight on some of the companies we worked with in 2023.

Social performance highlights

In the UK, as elsewhere, we want to be a business that makes a positive and sustainable difference to people’s lives. This means investing time, skills and financial resources to engage with and support communities in the places where we operate across the UK.
