Pandora opens new distribution centre in Canada
The new facility will handle Pandora's growing Canadian online business and reduces the company's exposure to US tariffs
Pandora to be carbon neutral by 2025
Pandora commits to ambitious decarbonisation targets in own operations as well as the full supply chain.
As the world is fighting the coronavirus, it continues to be our top priority to keep our employees and customers safe.
To support the efforts to limit the spread of the virus, Pandora has temporarily closed many of our stores around the world. We have closed all owned & operated stores in the U.S., Italy, Germany, France and Spain, and in most other European markets, the store network is impacted to some degree. Most of our offices have closed, and office staff is working from home.
Our online stores are still open in all markets and offer full access to the Pandora universe and assortment. So far, our crafting facilities in Thailand also continue without notable impact from the situation, and we are taking significant precautions to keep operations stable.
In these difficult times, Pandora is committed to support our employees as much as we can. When stores close, we will continue normal scheduled base pay for at least 8 weeks from when staff are sent home. By then we hope the situation will have improved, but we will adjust our approach, if necessary. Where available, we will seek support from relevant government relief programmes to help fund salary payment during closures.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our dedicated employees who work tirelessly to service our customers even under these difficult circumstances. Thanks to Pandora's strong position, we will get through this serious downturn together.
To all of you in the Pandora community, thank you for your loyalty. Stay safe.
