Modern Slavery Statemen
1. Our Commitment
At Festa Pizza Co, we believe in fair and ethical business practices. While we are not currently legally required under the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015, Section 3 of the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act, or the Canadian Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act (2023), we voluntarily affirm our commitment to opposing modern slavery and human trafficking in all its forms.
We are dedicated to ensuring that our business operations and supply chains are free from forced labor, child labor, and exploitation.
2. About Festa Pizza Co
Festa Pizza Co is a U.S.-based company that designs and distributes premium pizza ovens and culinary accessories. Our products are made with high standards of quality and craftsmanship, and we collaborate with a small number of trusted manufacturers and suppliers.
3. Supply Chain Standards
While most of our partners are located within regions that have strong labor protections, we recognize the global risks associated with supply chains. We expect our suppliers to operate with transparency and adhere to fair labor standards, including:
- No use of forced, bonded, or involuntary labor
- No child labor
- Safe and hygienic working conditions
- Legal wages and working hours
We aim to work only with suppliers who share our values and are willing to support ethical sourcing practices.
4. Due Diligence
Our due diligence measures include:
- Informal vetting of new suppliers for ethical compliance
- Maintaining close relationships with our vendors
- Open communication with partners regarding labor and human rights standards
As we grow, we are committed to strengthening our processes and engaging in more formal monitoring where needed.
5. Staff Awareness
All staff involved in procurement and supplier management are aware of the risks associated with modern slavery and the importance of ethical sourcing. We promote a culture of integrity and responsibility throughout our operations.

7. Looking Ahead
Festa Pizza Co is committed to growing responsibly. As we expand our operations and partnerships, we will continue to review and improve our efforts to eliminate risks related to modern slavery and human trafficking.
We will continue to monitor evolving legal requirements globally, including those outlined in the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act (Section 3) and the Canadian Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act (2023), and align our practices as necessary.
