The Difference. At Woolworths, QUALITY is our DNA, itÕs our philosophy, itÕs how weÕre wired. ItÕs what we do, and how we do it, since 1931. ItÕs our passion, our obsession and the promise we make to our customers and to each other. We are a business led by our values, with every customer we serve, every product we sell, every decision we make, bringing quality to life. Our values inform and underpin the way we do business. From values based leadership to passionate brand advocacy, we seek to embed our values across all dimensions of our business. At Woolies we offer a unique blend of food, fashion, beauty, homeware and financial services with the vision to be a leading fashion retailer in the Southern Hemisphere. We employ over 31 000 people in South Africa and over 43 000 people across the Group in South Africa, Africa and Australasia to transform this vision into reality. Doing business responsibly, in the most transparent and ethical way, sits at the heart of the Woolworths business. Sustainability is one of our values as well as a strategic imperative. We rely on our employees to be the creative and innovative hub of our business through the integration of sustainability initiatives into everything we do. Through the collective efforts, commitment and support of our people, suppliers and customers we continue to make great progress on our journey to leave the world and our community in a better place than we found it.
