-
In the countries within the Sustainability Report area, the Generali Group had
relations with 188,369 suppliers, showing an increase of 9.9% on the previous
year.
-
The presence of certain Europ Assistance group companies in the scope, whose
suppliers accounted for 75.9% of the total, is at the root of the high number
of suppliers. This depends on the specific activity undertaken, which envisages
the provision of various types of service and the consequent availability of suppliers
(car hire companies, roadside assistance providers, plumbers, smiths, electricians,
carpenters, clinics, hospitals, diagnostic centres, analysis laboratories, ambulances,
doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, etc.) throughout the country.
-
It is partly for this reason that most Group suppliers offer services connected
with Group business, while a much smaller number of suppliers provide various
services in support of company businesses (cleaning, maintenance, transport, etc.)
and the supply of goods.
