Modern Slavery Statement for Soho Storage

Soho Storage is committed to conducting business with integrity, transparency, and respect for human rights. This modern slavery statement sets out the steps we take to prevent slavery, servitude, forced labour, and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains. We recognise that modern slavery can affect many sectors, including storage, logistics, cleaning, maintenance, and procurement, and we maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward any form of exploitation.

Our approach is grounded in responsible business conduct and ongoing vigilance. We expect all employees, contractors, and business partners to share our commitment to ethical labour practices. Through clear policies, training, and oversight, Soho Storage seeks to identify risks early and act decisively where concerns arise. We believe that a strong anti-slavery framework is essential to protecting workers and maintaining trust in our brand.

As part of our anti-slavery framework, we carry out due diligence on relevant suppliers and service providers before engagement and throughout the relationship. This includes assessing labour practices, ownership structures, and geographic or sector-specific risks. Where necessary, we request evidence of employment policies, wage compliance, subcontractor controls, and worker grievance arrangements to confirm alignment with our expectations.

Supplier audits are a key part of our ongoing monitoring. We use a risk-based approach to schedule reviews of higher-risk suppliers and request corrective action plans when standards are not met. These audits may include document checks, site visits, worker interviews where appropriate, and follow-up assessments to verify improvement. If a supplier fails to address serious concerns, we reserve the right to suspend or end the relationship.

Soho Storage also provides safe and accessible reporting channels so concerns can be raised without fear of retaliation. Employees and other stakeholders may report suspected issues through internal management lines, designated compliance routes, or anonymous mechanisms where available. All reports are treated seriously, investigated promptly, and handled confidentially as far as possible. We prohibit retaliation against anyone who raises a concern in good faith.

Training and awareness help ensure our people understand the indicators of modern slavery and how to respond. Relevant staff receive guidance on spotting warning signs such as unusual wage deductions, restricted movement, document retention, or coercive working conditions. By building awareness across the organisation, Soho Storage strengthens its ability to detect and address risks in a timely and responsible way.

We are committed to continuous improvement and recognise that combating modern slavery is an ongoing responsibility. Our senior leadership reviews key risk findings, supplier performance, and any reported concerns to ensure action is taken where required. This oversight supports a culture in which ethical conduct is embedded in everyday decision-making and procurement practices.

Annual review is central to our statement and related controls. We will review this modern slavery statement at least once every year to confirm that it remains effective, relevant, and aligned with legal requirements and operational changes. The review will consider updated risk assessments, audit outcomes, incident reports, and feedback from internal stakeholders to strengthen our response year by year.

This statement reflects Soho Storage’s ongoing commitment to preventing exploitation in all forms. By enforcing a strict zero-tolerance stance, monitoring suppliers through targeted audits, offering reliable reporting channels, and conducting an annual review, we aim to uphold the highest standards of ethical responsibility. We will continue to improve our practices and expect the same level of dedication from everyone who works with us.
