At DECATHLON, we play on a global playing field. As one team, we believe that everyone is entitled to be treated with dignity, fairness, equality, and respect. Be it through our own operations or sphere of influence along our value chain, we have a responsibility to respect human rights in order to advance an overall good for people, the planet, and our business.

Committed to internationally recognized human rights standards and the advancement of a sustainable future, we put people at the center of our approach to promote vitality, generosity, responsibility and authenticity.

This vision is anchored in our Human Rights Policy, which clearly defines our commitment to actively engage on relevant human rights issues while also outlining our approach and ambitions regarding the implementation of a targeted human rights strategy, that will seek to continuously improve our established human rights due diligence mechanisms. It's a testament to our ambition to accelerate the positive impact Decathlon can have in the world.

As part of our activities, we at DECATHLON are committed to using more and more responsibly sourced materials that respect human rights and safety at work, while improving our impact on the environment, biodiversity and animal condition.

You'll find our statements relating to cotton, wool, down, leather and wood. These statements are an integral part of our code of conduct. Our suppliers must comply with and take them into account within their supply chain.

Food and sport are the two pillars of health, which is why Decathlon Nutrition wants to offer nutrition products adapted to each need and respectful of the planet. Aware that the food transition is one of the major challenges to be taken up by the world in the coming years, Decathlon Nutrition wishes to be involved in this sustainable food transition.

Fully committed, we have decided to sign the European Union Code of Conduct on Responsible Food Marketing and Commercial Practices. This Code defines the actions that the actors "between the farm and the fork" voluntarily commit to undertake in order to improve and communicate in a tangible way their performance in terms of sustainability.
