Launched in 2000, the United Nations Global Compact is a call to companies around the world to align their operations and strategies with 10 universal principles. The principles cover human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption.

With over 9,500 companies, 70 local networks and 3,000 non-business signatories, the UN Global Compact is the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative – and MM is now a member. As part of the programme, we support the UN’s principles via our sustainable business practices and file an annual report detailing how.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS

The United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development was agreed in September 2015 by 193 countries, and continues the work of the UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).

At MM we use the UN Sustainability Development Goals as a framework to help us understand how we can make positive differences to our local communities from a city market setting.

Join the MMovement

MM is inviting people, companies and policymakers across London, the UK and the world to join the movement to change food culture in the country. This is an open invitation for people who believe in:

Healthy, sustainable, living food made with rural, artisanal practices

Supply chains that prioritise quality over price and make good, healthy food available

The importance of community in cities across the world, starting with London
