THIRD PARTY ETHICAL STANDARDS

Last Updated: July 6, 2026

Integrity and Responsibility are core values at Cosmetic Distributor Limited. We aim to realize these values in our day-to-day operations and with our business partners. With these values in mind, Cosmetic Distributor Limited outlines these Third-Party Ethical Standards to ensure that its approved partners (such as third-party suppliers and manufacturers) not only respect and comply with all applicable local and international laws, but also engage in fair, safe, and ethical business practices.

BUSINESS PARTNER EXPECTATIONS

Cosmetic Distributor Limited uses its best endeavors to provide high-quality beauty and personal care products that offer reliability and safety to customers, while remaining friendly to both society and the environment.

To achieve this end, it is essential for Cosmetic Distributor Limited to collaborate with business partners who commit themselves toward a sustainable supply chain through demonstrably ethical and lawful practices in all activities.

These Standards specify the non-negotiable minimum standard of conduct that Cosmetic Distributor Limited expects of its suppliers, manufacturers, and subcontractors (both in substance and in spirit).

COMPLIANCE & AUDITING

Cosmetic Distributor Limited works collaboratively with its partners to ensure compliance with these Ethical Standards. We expect our partners to support us by providing necessary supply chain information upon request.

Where required, Cosmetic Distributor Limited reserves the right to inspect, audit, or verify our business partners’ compliance with these Ethical Standards directly or through designated third parties.
