Project Narrative

Across our value chain as a business, the biggest need for water is in the supply chain. The growing of our food products, key commodities, as well as the manufacturing of our textiles, requires large amounts of water. In addition, issues of waste water discharge and treatment are critical. Our goal is, therefore, to continually engage with our Woolworths suppliers to monitor water usage as well as waste water management. We do this through various programmes such as Farming for the Future and the green factories programme.
