M&S
Our ready meals lack a certain something. Hydrogenated fats

If you’re interested in the way our clothes are sourced and made, what goes into the food we sell, what we’re doing to protect the environment, create good working conditions around the world and ensure high standards of animal welfare, this part of our website is for you.

We insist on all our products being sourced and manufactured to our high quality
and ethical standards – standards you’d expect from M&S and many of which have been recognised by independent organisations such as the RSPCA and Greenpeace.

We’re proud of the way we do business and are pleased to invite you to
look behind our label.

Fairtrade

Fairtrade Coffee

One of the best ways to tackle poverty in developing countries is to build trade links with farmers and their communities. That's why we are selling more and more products that carry the Fairtrade label.

Washability

Machine Washable Clothes

We have made our clothes easy to look after as well as great to wear. 85% are machine-washable, including some of our suits, silk, cashmere and suede.

Animal Welfare

Animal Welfare Case Study

Our commitment to animal welfare is shared by our farmers. Our dedicated agriculture team works closely with them to oversee the development and implementation of our strict livestock production standards.

Sustainability

Responsibly sourced fish

Our customers can be 100% confident that we care about how we source all our fish. We only sell fish when we believe it has been responsibly sourced.

Non-GM

Non-GM Case Study

We are the only major UK food retailer to guarantee that no genetically modified ingredients are used in the manufacture of our food, from fruit and vegetables to the ingredients in our ready-meals.
