Responsible purchasing

We recently updated our Code of Ethical Purchasing, which every supplier working with Vodafone must comply with. It stipulates the social, ethical, and environmental standards that we expect our suppliers to adhere to. 

These commitments extend down through the supply chain so that all direct suppliers must ensure compliance across their own direct supply chain.

Zero tolerance to Bribery and Corruption

We support and foster a culture of zero tolerance towards bribery, corruption or fraud in all our activities. Our anti-bribery policy is consistent with the UK Bribery Act and the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and provides guidance about what constitutes a bribe and prohibits giving or receiving any excessive or improper gifts and hospitality. 

We are committed to ensuring that our business operates ethically, lawfully and with integrity wherever we operate, as this is critical to our long-term success. As a major investor, taxpayer and employer, we make a significant contribution to the economies of the countries in which we operate.

In addition to direct and indirect taxation, our financial contributions to governments also include other areas such as radio spectrum fees and spectrum auction proceeds.
