Hy-Vee has enacted a new Seafood Supplier Code of Conduct (SCoC) to bolster its commitment to sourcing environmentally and socially responsible seafood and working with suppliers that embrace fair labor practices.
West Des Moines, Iowa-based Hy-Vee said Wednesday that the SCoC was created to ensure that its suppliers enforce safe working conditions, workers in its seafood supply chains are treated with respect and dignity, and seafood harvesting and production processes are legal and transparent. The company noted that 100% of its active seafood suppliers have received and signed a copy of the new code since its inception in January.
