Johnson & Johnson Suppliers Need Sustainability Goals Under New Initiative

All strategic suppliers to J&J will need at least two publically-reported sustainability goals under a new initiative by the healthcare giant. Johnson & Johnson (J&J) set the target in its Healthy Future 2015 initiative document which details seven sustainability priorities. Partnering with suppliers that “embrace sustainability” is one of the stated goals. To become a strategic partner suppliers must “have two or more publicly-reported sustainability goals” and all should “demonstrate a similar commitment to that of J&J”. Other elements of the document give an idea of J&J’s level of commitment, in particular to cutting the environmental impact of facilities.
