ScanCom (Vietnam), the parent company of the market-leading LifestyleGarden® outdoor furniture brand, is celebrating this week as it has been confirmed as one of the shortlisted companies at this year’s Sedex Awards.

Each year, the Sedex Awards celebrate the incredible efforts its members undertake globally to ensure the work they carry out is done so in a sustainable fashion and impacts upon the environment in the least possible way. This year there are five awards categories highlighting collaboration, environmental and labour programmes. Award entries were shortlisted based on their level of innovation, scale of impact and implementation, possibility of replication and transparency of communication and leadership.

ScanCom is just one of three companies that have been shortlisted for the highly-contested ‘Best Collaborative Effort’ award. This award showcases examples of how members are collaborating or partnering with customers, suppliers or other stakeholders to improve working conditions or to solve a responsible sourcing challenge.

The award will be judged by this year’s panel of judges, made up of Mark Driscoll, Founder and Director at Tasting the Future, Svetlana Yarovikova, Senior Risk Manager at Carlsberg, Doroteya Vladimirova, Senior Research Associate, Centre for Industrial Sustainability Institute at University of Cambridge, and Jermyn Brooks, Chair, Business Advisory Board, Transparency International.

Together the judges will be able to view the phenomenal efforts that ScanCom undertakes to ensure that it continues to provide innovation and excellence without compromising its vision of “Doing Business the Right Way”. The company aims to create outstanding products that combine international design expertise with state-of-the-art production techniques and a proven commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility.

The winners of the Best Collaborative Effort, as well as the other winners, will be announced at the prestigious Sedex Awards Dinner on March 26th 2019, held at the De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in London, following the Sedex 2019 Conference.
