CORE COMPANY
VALUES:
Think Customer
First
Our Customers are the reason we’re in
business. So we set priorities based on the question: “How will this
serve them?” We owe Customers our very best efforts and do whatever it
takes to keep them coming back by really listening to them, anticipating
their needs, and by being first to offer them the best. We move on
Customer needs and requests with a sense of urgency — at the “speed of
retail.”
Dignity and Respect
We see and value the uniqueness of
every individual and believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity
and respect. When we interact with Customers, we make them feel Welcome, Important,
and Appreciated. For some of us, the “Customers” are Associates in our
stores. We treat fellow Associates with the dignity and respect deserving
of any member of the A&P family. When we see our colleagues treating
people right, we praise in public. When we see behavior that misses the
mark, we counsel in private and with kindness.
Talent Investment
We believe that when you build the
people, they will build the business. So we choose to invest in our
people by continually providing opportunities for development. We
encourage our Associates to continually seek out fresh ideas and
approaches. We are a culture of “responsible learners” who identify our
skill gaps and fill them in with self-learning. Building our knowledge
base and sharing it with others will help our Company innovate and grow.
Whenever possible, we promote from within.
Integrity
People want to do business with those
they can trust. To earn that trust, we are true to our word and keep our
promises. We are honest to a fault. We tell the truth, even when it
hurts. Because we hold ourselves to the highest ethical standard in our
words and deeds, and we welcome scrutiny from our business partners, our
shareholders, and the general public. We are committed to being an
upstanding corporate citizen in the communities we serve.
Accountability
Each of us makes a daily contribution
to the success of our Company. In that sense, we are all owners. We show
our pride in ownership by taking responsibility for all aspects of our
work. We follow through completely and measure our results. Each
Associate has the responsibility to look, see, and act to make our
Company stronger. When we see a problem, we not only fix the problem — we
fix the cause. We base our work on data, not feelings. We know our Customers
and we know our numbers.
Teamwork
We work as a team, because while any
individual idea or effort may be great, collaboration will only make it
better. The most important job of any manager is to develop people to be
experts and leaders themselves. This is how we will build strong teams.
Company leaders keep an “open door” to suggestions and new ideas from
Associates. It’s more fun to win. When a job is well done, we celebrate
successes and share in the rewards — together.
Sustainability
We are a
good neighbor. We make a positive mark on the environment we work in, so
it’s a better place for our having been there. We stay connected to the
community through charitable giving and service. We especially support
programs that make a difference in the lives of children — our most
precious resource. Doing good for the
communities we serve is good for business. We’re committed to offering
products, information, and incentives that help our Customers do the
right thing for their families and the environment. Sustainability guides
our long-range planning. We make business decisions that are designed to
help our company prosper for another 150 years.
