The Human Rights Impact Assessment (HRIA) in Lidl’s Kenyan tea supply chain was conducted in 2020, by Lidl Great Britain on behalf of the Lidl group.
The assessment considered the different perspectives of people that are affected by Lidl’s business activities, including potentially impacted rights-holders, and also engaged with key stakeholders along the supply chain. These included Kenyan smallholder farmers, tea estate workers, our direct suppliers and key Lidl staff, including commercial teams and buyers.
