How we build long-term partnership
Working with our partners in a sustainable and responsible way
Bringing innovative, effective, high-quality products to our consumers around the world has always been L’Oréal’s mission. To do this, we select partners who are experts in their field, and with whom we can build a long-term relationship and co-create sustainable innovations.
These partners work with us at every stage of the supply chain, with one essential requirement: to act in a responsible and ethical way. Our purchasing policy is based on meeting strict ethical, environmental and social requirements, in order to ensure the quality, effectiveness and traceability of our products. The Buy & Care charter that connects us with our suppliers defines very precise rules for responsible purchasing at a worldwide level.

L'Oréal Campus for Suppliers
We have created Campus for Suppliers to communicate with and for our suppliers. Available to selected partners, this platform delivers a special “supplier experience” by gathering information flows, regrouping events organized for our suppliers and opening a space to exchange on shared projects.
You will also find information on the L'Oréal Group such as our performance measurement rules, the details on our environmental program, our webinar replays and our Communication Kit, shared at our Business Review.
