Our commitment to supplier sustainability is embedded in the belief that businesses have a responsibility to operate in a way that promotes long-term sustainability, both for their own operations, as well as for the communities and ecosystems in which they operate. Our suppliers are pivotal stakeholders in Sasol achieving its sustainability goals and by working with those who share our values and commitment to sustainability, we collectively impact the environment and society, positively.

Continuous collaboration across business levels ensures our standards regarding our environmental responsibility, social equity, and ethical business practices, are met.

Sasol’s primary objective is to create a sustainable supply chain minimising negative environmental and social impacts while maximizing positive results for all stakeholders. Our aim is to collaborate and work with suppliers committed to continuously improving their own sustainability practices creating a sustainable future for all.

We have established an internal sustainable procurement steering committee that oversees ESG matters. This steering committee directs and prioritise sustainable procurement matters such as updates to the Supplier Code of Conduct, Supplier ESG maturity assessments, Climate Change response, Localisation and Economic Transformation. The Steering Committee includes senior management representing areas from production, sustainability and supply chain.
