Shepherd Neame is proud to be a founding member of Zero Carbon Forum, the biggest collaborative approach within our sector to drive action to reach net zero targets.

We are working towards achieving Green Mark sustainability certification for our brewery, Visitor Centre and support offices. This recognised award is for organisations that have robust environmental management systems in place, together with an action plan for improvement, and is fully in line with our three core objectives.

For more than a decade Shepherd Neame has been a member of Sedex, one of the world’s leading ethical trade organisations, working to help businesses operate responsibly and sustainably, protect workers and source ethically.

The majority of our suppliers are Sedex-registered and have an environmental accreditation where relevant. We regularly monitor our suppliers’ standards to ensure they are in keeping with our own ethos and values, and work with them to improve sustainability performance.

We are also promoting initiatives in areas including environmental preservation and human rights throughout the entire supply chain by working closely with suppliers, processing vendors, customers, and distribution companies.
