Responsible Business

Delivering Real Value To The World

TJX is the leading off-price retailer of apparel and home fashions worldwide, with seven retail chains operating more than 4,800 stores in nine countries spanning three continents. As an off-price leader and a Fortune 100 company, we recognize the relevance to our key stakeholders – including Associates, customers, communities, vendors, and shareholders – that we operate responsibly.

Our business dealings and interactions are grounded in our long-held core values of honesty, integrity, and treating others with dignity and respect. We hold ourselves to high ethical standards and expect our Associates to comply with these standards set forth in the TJX Global Code of Conduct. Likewise, our Vendor Code of Conduct sets our expectations of the vendors with whom we do business. We provide periodic training, both formal and informal, to reinforce these expectations and offer grievance mechanisms for reporting any suspected violations or concerns.
