Mayor of London's Green Procurement Code launches new website
Tuesday, August 25th, 2009
The Mayor of London’s Green Procurement Code unveils a fresh new
look with the launch of its revamped website. Greenprocurementcode.co.uk is an
information hub for businesses looking to reduce their environmental impact
through responsible purchasing.
Visitors to the new site
can access the latest news and events listings, sustainable products and
suppliers, the latest industry publications and best practice case studies. Signatories
to the Green Procurement Code will benefit from a ‘members-only’ toolkit, which
provides comprehensive information and advice on implementing green purchasing.
Mayor of London,
Boris Johnson, said: “We want to make it easier for organisations to make
eco-friendly purchasing decisions. By doing so, businesses can not only be
kinder to the planet, but can also save money in tough economic times.”
Green Procurement Code Programme
Manager, Graham Randles, highlights the benefits of the new site. “In the
current financial climate companies don’t want to waste valuable time and resources
searching for information. The new website is an easy to navigate,
one-stop-shop for organisations looking to make smart green procurement
decisions.”
