Kroger has the buying objective of responsible sourcing and supply chain sustainability.

Explanation:

Responsible sourcing involves procuring materials for a business where ethics and long-term sustainability are the watchwords.

The only to way to ensure suppliers do the right in business is for their customers to assess them based on ethics and sustainability, hence supplier that does not conform to ideal business ethics is at the risk of losing business. No doubt that suppliers are forced to the right thing in ensuring the environment and their host communities do not suffer hardship emanating from their operational hazards.
