A Message From Our CEO, Josh Weinstein
At Carnival Corporation & plc (“Carnival”), our purpose is simple but ambitious – to deliver unforgettable happiness to our guests by providing extraordinary cruise vacations. We could not fulfill our mission without the help of our valued business partners working by our side to achieve success.
Bringing happiness to the world comes with great privilege and enormous responsibility, which extends to all our suppliers, vendors, distributors, consultants, agents and any other third parties who do business with us or on our behalf (“Business Partners”). It’s why we developed this Business Partner Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Business Partner Code”), to outline our expectations and minimum requirements for all Carnival’s Business Partners, including your supply chain (including sub-contractors) and third-party labor agencies.
The principles embedded in our Business Partner Code define who we are, what we stand for, and how we operate. They also ensure our business partners are doing things the right way, ethically, and in full compliance with the law to ensure we honor the integrity of every ocean we sail, place we visit and life we touch.
Carnival is defined by the actions of each of us and every good decision helps ensure we achieve our goals together in the right way. Thank you for following our Business Partner Code, living our values, and helping us to fulfill our purpose.

Josh Weinstein
Chief Executive Officer
As the global leader in the cruise industry, our vision is to lead the way in innovative and sustainable cruising to deliver memorable vacations and build borderless connections. To achieve our vision, we work with business partners who live up to the values and standards we apply to ourselves, outlined in the Carnival Human Rights Policy, the Carnival Business Partner Code of Conduct and Ethics, the Carnival Health, Environmental, Safety, Security and Sustainability Corporate Policy and in our Sustainability Goals and Aspirations.
The Business Partner Code of Conduct and Ethics (BPC) helps our business partners within our supply chain more fully understand and comply with our expectations for legal compliance, ethical behavior rights. It addresses the practices of all our business partners, including our Suppliers of goods and services, and relevant facilities involved in the production or provision of goods and services on behalf of Carnival.
Carnival is committed to sustainability and this commitment is embedded in our business – from ship to shore. To achieve our sustainability ambition, including our 2030 sustainability goals and 2050 sustainability aspirations, we need our Suppliers to ensure sustainability is at the core of their operations and support our key sustainability programs for climate action, circular economy, good health & well-being, sustainable tourism & animal welfare, biodiversity & conservation, and diversity, equity and inclusion.
In furtherance of our ethical and compliance commitments, we are establishing the Carnival Responsible and Sustainable Sourcing Policy (RSSP). The RSSP and associated social and environmental standards (“Standards”) provide guidelines and recommendations to help Business Partners meet our mandatory minimum requirements for compliance and progress towards industry best practice.
