HIGHLIGHT STORY
Farm & Zoo Donations
Costco warehouses across the country partner with local zoos and farms to divert food that is no longer fit for human consumption. Not only does this contribute to Costco's waste diversion from landfill commitment but it is also an excellent way to give back to the communities where we operate.
"We not only donate to a Food Bank, we also donate to a local pig farmer and an animal sanctuary. We are extremely honoured to be able to provide a positive contribution in our community!" - Costco Employee

Six Questions for Suppliers
We're committed to offering high-quality goods at the lowest possible prices — in a way that respects the people, environment and animals that produce them. We ask our suppliers six foundational questions:
- Can you map your supply chain?
- How are the people cared for?
- How are the animals cared for?
- How is the environment cared for?
- Is the best possible packaging being used?
- What are your emissions and your plans to reduce them?
