Dear partners and colleagues,

Since 2001, clover^® has grown as an integrated industrial group — not by chasing volume for its own sake, but by earning trust through specification discipline, honest dialogue, and delivery partners can plan on.

This note sets out the principles that guide how we trade internationally, how we treat people, and how we intend to keep building clover^® for the long term.

• International trade — open, professional engagement with mills, smelters, and brand partners across markets we know deeply.
• Ethical conduct — principled business classification in every contract, every lot, and every relationship.
• Sustainable life — responsible production and sourcing that respects resources and communities.
• Equal opportunities — merit, safety, and respect for every colleague who carries our name.
• Quality products, on time — specifications you can audit and cadence you can schedule against.
• Solution-driven company — problems surfaced early, answered with options, not excuses.
• Teamwork — division leaders, plant teams, and commercial desks aligned on one standard.

International programmes built on complementary manufacturing and accountable sourcing — fibre, yarn, mining, and textiles.

Transparent classification of what we produce, what we partner for, and what we commit to deliver.

Sustainable practice embedded in how we invest, operate, and report — not as slogans, as outcomes.

International trade will remain demanding — specification depth, compliance, and relationships that survive price cycles. clover^® will continue to compete on what we control: owned manufacturing where it matters, strategic partnerships where it complements, and teamwork that keeps promises visible.

That is the company we are building — and the partner we invite you to hold us to.

Altay AKBUKUT
