Engaging and training L’Oréal buyers has
made it possible to mobilize suppliers and
convince that measures aimed at reducing
greenhouse gas emissions play an
inevitable part of a company’s global
performance. CDP’s supply chain scoring is
then part of supplier’s evaluation.
Suppliers’ performance on climate change
is fully included in supplier relationship and
challenged during business reviews.
