Freightways Supplier Code of Conduct

As a Freightways business we are committed to working to ensure we carry out our business activities with integrity and in ways that are ethical and sustainable. To ensure that our suppliers share these values, Freightways has established the Freightways Supplier Code of Conduct.

This Code outlines our minimum expectations for suppliers providing goods and services to TIMG as a Freightways business. We expect our suppliers to comply with all applicable laws and adhere to the standards and principles set out in this Code in their business activities, operations, and supply chains.

Key areas covered in the Code include:

Compliance with this Code will be a material consideration for TIMG when engaging suppliers and will be used as part of our supplier evaluation, selection, and contract management process. We expect to undertake due diligence and risk assessments to verify compliance and expect our suppliers to cooperate and provide supporting evidence as required.
