About Us
Social Responsibility
Family owned and operated since 1971, SanMar believes in ethically, environmentally and socially responsible conduct. When you partner with SanMar, you can be confident we’re doing everything we can to promote a higher standard of living, minimize environmental impact and invest in the communities in which our employees and customers live.
We Save Gas and Retain Great People
More than 45 million Americans telecommute. SanMar joins this growing trend with our At Home program which unclogs roadways, saves gas and improves the quality of life for employees.
We Conserve Precious Resources
For years, SanMar catalogs have used paper with a minimum of 10% post-consumer waste... saving trees, water and energy. We also meet strict Forest Stewardship Council certification standards.
We Run Energy Efficient Facilities
We take steps to conserve energy by incorporating energy efficient lighting in our new distribution centers and by upgrading the lighting in our existing facilities.
We Invest In Our Communities
SanMar supports our employees’ and customers’ charitable efforts through major fundraising efforts and donations of apparel and accessories.
We’re Committed to a Robust and Transparent Social Compliance Program
SanMar is a participating company with the Fair Labor Association (FLA). The FLA is a non-profit organization that combines the efforts of companies, colleges, universities and non-governmental organizations to promote adherence to international labor standards and to improve working conditions worldwide.
“SanMar takes social compliance very seriously and requires all suppliers to adhere to our Global Operating Principles,” says Marty Lott, SanMar president. “This process begins during supplier selection as it is critical that suppliers share our commitment to ethical practices and agree to abide by our strict requirements prior to receiving orders.”
