Sustainable Development115
Supply Chain Management
We believe that the success of a supplier will
benefit the supplier itself, Huawei, and Huawei’s
customers. Therefore, apart from managing our
own sustainability and proactively fulfilling our
social responsibilities, we require our suppliers to
incorporate a comprehensive sustainability strategy
into their core operations and routine business
activities. This requirement is essential to ensuring
supply chain sustainability, establishing Huawei as a
role model in supply chain sustainability, and building
up the confidence of customers around the globe.
The United Nations Global Compact China Network
granted the “2012 CSR Best Practice” award to
Huawei in recognition of our management initiatives
in supply chain sustainability.
Supplier Localization
As a global company, Huawei gives preference to
suppliers from the local communities in which we
operate. Our choice aims to support local companies
in the supply chain and contribute to local social-
economic and environmental development.
