Florist Fitzrovia stands as a reliable, community-focused florist serving households and businesses throughout Fitzrovia and surrounding areas. We recognise our responsibilities as a trusted local supplier to uphold the highest standards of integrity and transparency in all our affairs. We are absolutely committed to combating modern slavery and human trafficking in all its forms within our operations and wider supply chain.
Modern slavery, including forced labour, human trafficking, and exploitation, is fundamentally at odds with our values. Florist Fitzrovia maintains a strict zero tolerance policy towards any form of modern slavery. We expect the same from all our partners, suppliers, and contractors. Should any evidence of such practices emerge, we will take swift and decisive action, up to and including the cessation of business relationships.
Our supply chain includes growers, wholesalers, logistics providers, and other service partners. We understand that risks of modern slavery can exist at various stages of this chain, especially internationally. To address this, we conduct thorough due diligence when selecting new suppliers, ensuring they share our commitment to fair treatment, legal compliance, and ethical employment. Regular reassessments of existing suppliers are also conducted, including requesting information on their labour practices, and looking for credible evidence of adherence to anti-slavery standards.
Staff awareness is vital in the prevention and early detection of modern slavery. We provide training to our team so that they are able to identify potential indicators of exploitation—whether it is in our own workplace or encountered in the supply chain. This training is revisited regularly to keep knowledge up to date, and to reinforce our heightened vigilance throughout daily operations.
Florist Fitzrovia encourages everyone connected to our business—staff, suppliers, and customers—to report any concerns, however minor, about possible instances of modern slavery or human trafficking. We provide straightforward, confidential channels so that people can raise concerns without fear of reprisals. Every report is treated seriously, investigated promptly, and where necessary, escalated to appropriate authorities. Our leadership is committed to fostering a work environment where concerns are welcomed and acted upon.
We recognise that the fight against modern slavery requires ongoing effort and vigilance. Therefore, we conduct an annual review of this statement and the effectiveness of our related policies and procedures. This enables us to learn from our experiences, adapt to emerging risks, and ensure that our approach remains robust and relevant. Updates to this statement will reflect improvements based on these reviews.
We believe that the trust placed in us by the Fitzrovia community comes with the responsibility to act ethically in everything we do. By upholding these principles, Florist Fitzrovia aims to contribute not only to the beauty of our neighbourhood with our flowers, but also to its integrity—standing against modern slavery in all its forms.
