Founded in 1980 by Irish biochemist and entrepreneur Dr. Pearse Lyons, Alltech is a leading global biotechnology company whose mission is to improve the health and performance of people, animals and plants through natural nutrition and scientific innovation. Along with this mission, Alltech is committed to improving our practices to combat slavery and human trafficking. Our business practices and supply chains reach many parts of the world and with such reach it is essential that we enforce effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking does not take place anywhere in our supply chain.
Alltech and its subsidiaries across the globe are committed to improving practices to combat slavery and human trafficking. We recognize that our business practices and supply chains reach many different parts of the world and thereby are at risk from modern slavery and human trafficking offences.
We have therefore taken steps to manage this risk and regulate our supply chain by implementing policies, procedures, risk assessments and by providing training to all relevant staff.
