Approach

Purchasing Policy and CSR Guidelines for Supply Chain

We have established the “K” Line Group Companies Purchasing Policy and are working to build relationships of mutual trust and cooperation with our business partners as an indispensable partner in providing services that our customers trust.
In addition to the “K” Line Group Companies Purchasing Policy, we formulated “K” Line Group Companies CSR Guidelines for Supply Chain to promote CSR across the entire supply chain and work together with our customers to realize a sustain- able society.
