Ethics and compliance
Code of Conduct for Employees
We believe that there is only one way to do business and that is the right way. Our Code of Conduct is at the heart of the way we do business. Our employees around the world meet our high standards, ensuring that we operate ethically and sustainably while fulfilling our purpose of "Feeding the Future".
How we work with our suppliers
All of our suppliers are required to accept and comply with the Business Partner Code of Conduct. Supplier sustainability audits focus primarily on countries and ingredients that have been identified as "high risk." Skretting currently has approximately 1,300 ingredient suppliers located around the world.

What it takes to be a Skretting supplier
Producing high-quality food starts with sourcing the right high-quality ingredients. To make sure that our ingredients are of the right quality, we engage in a high level of cooperation with our suppliers.
For new ingredients and new suppliers, it all starts with a mandatory approval process that aligns ingredient quality criteria with our own quality criteria.
For this initial assessment, we require potential suppliers to provide us:
- Product data sheets such as a component data safety sheet and certificate of analysis
- Acknowledgment of our Nutreco Code of Conduct for Business Partners
- Completed Skretting questionnaires, such as manufacturer and supplier questionnaires, which provide information, e.g. E.g. on HACCP procedures
