Maintaining High Product Quality & Safety

It is important to us that people equate our brands to quality, value and safety. Amongst our extensive range of products to be put on shelves, each of the Exclusive Brands products must pass through a stringent quality-assurance process that is checked by our own laboratories as well as external experts. We also conduct regular research to listen to customers about our products so we can continue to improve.

We offer and promote products that help reduce environmental impact, by providing refill options, a better selection of ingredients and packaging materials from sustainable sources. Partnering with over 600 suppliers, we provide more than 16,000 health, beauty, and personal care sustainable choices products. Across all our businesses, we run regular awareness programmes to inspire customers to embrace a more sustainable lifestyle.
