Modern Slavery Policy Statement
Last reviewed in May 2025
Victoria Miro Gallery Ltd. (Victoria Miro) Company no. 02744895 is committed to combating modern slavery and human trafficking. This statement sets out the steps that Victoria Miro is taking to ensure modern slavery is not taking place in our business or supply chains and is made according to Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
Victoria Miro is a commercial art gallery that showcases the work of established and emerging artists from the USA, Europe, and Asia.
Our Performance
Set out below is a summary of our activities over the financial year beginning 31 October 2024 and what we set out to achieve going forward.
Supply Chain & Contractual
We have established the highest risk categories in our supply chain based on the level of spend and nature of activities. These categories are:
1. Construction and Design;
2. Shipping and Transport;
3. Hospitality;
4. Facilities;
5. Manufacturing.
New Suppliers:
In our procurement procedures, we intend to request potential suppliers to confirm their adherence to the Modern Slavery Act 2015 if their services fall within our primary risk categories and the expected expenditure exceeds £25,000. For suppliers who have published a modern slavery statement on their website, we will assess the policy and address any additional questions as necessary.
Existing Suppliers:
We conducted due diligence on all suppliers with whom Victoria Miro Gallery Ltd spent £25,000 or more between April 2024 and April 2025. As part of this process, we performed a risk assessment considering factors such as geographic location, industry sector, and annual turnover. Out of 125 suppliers reviewed, 42 were identified as potentially high-risk. We subsequently engaged with these suppliers to seek clarification regarding their compliance with anti-slavery and human trafficking legislation.
