1. Purpose

At Green Cart Online Store, we believe in creating value beyond profit. Our Social Responsibility Policy reflects our commitment to ethical practices, environmental stewardship, local agricultural development, and meaningful community impact, in alignment with the mission and objectives of the Cape Town Agricultural Association (CTAA).

2. Our Commitments

We are committed to promoting and selling products from local farmers, cooperatives, and producers, especially those who follow sustainable and ethical farming practices. This supports local economic development and aligns with CTAA’s goal of promoting excellence and innovation in agriculture.

Green Cart prioritizes suppliers and partners who comply with fair labour practices, environmental regulations, and transparent supply chains. We work to ensure that all stakeholders benefit fairly from the value chain.

• We promote eco-friendly packaging and actively work to reduce waste in our logistics and delivery operations.
• We educate customers on sustainable consumption through awareness campaigns, product labelling, and digital resources.
• We support CTAA-led environmental initiatives, including water-wise agriculture and conservation.

• We partner with local organisations to support educational programs, skills training, and food security initiatives in underserved communities.
• We provide internship and mentorship opportunities in e-commerce, agricultural tech, and logistics.
• A portion of our annual profits is reinvested into CTAA-endorsed community development projects.

Our employees are encouraged to take part in community and environmental activities. We promote ethical behaviour, inclusivity, and continuous learning within our workforce.

3. Collaboration with CTAA

Green Cart is an active supporter of the CTAA’s vision of building a resilient and innovative agricultural sector. Our social responsibility strategy is regularly reviewed in collaboration with CTAA to ensure alignment with evolving industry and community needs.

4. Monitoring and Reporting

We maintain transparency in our social impact efforts and publish an annual Social Responsibility Report, outlining our achievements, challenges, and future goals. Stakeholders are welcome to provide feedback at any time.

5. Policy Review

This policy will be reviewed annually in consultation with the CTAA to ensure its continued relevance and effectiveness.
