Our suppliers
A key to building a better business
IWAY Standard
We know that our business has an impact on people and the planet. So how can we do good business while being a good business?
We want everyone to feel good about the products we sell. That's why choosing suppliers is not just a question about finding the right quality, at the right price. We also want to make sure that our environmental standards are met, and that everyone involved is treated fairly.
For us it's a natural extension of creating a better everyday life, and that's why it includes suppliers and service providers across different stages of the value chain including service providers to stores, distribution centres and facility management, as well as suppliers of food, transport, home furnishing products and components.
To achieve our goals we've developed a code of conduct for suppliers called IWAY (short for the IKEA way on purchasing products, materials and services). IWAY is based on widely recognised international documents and conventions for human rights, environmental protection, and worker safety, as well as on IKEA values and legal compliance.
