Our Commitments

Target is proud to be one of the world’s most beloved brands, and we’ve made commitments across our business to guide us in keeping that long legacy alive.

Our commitments help us welcome all guests and bring them ease, inspiration — and, of course, joy — every time they shop with us. They help us take care of our 400,000+ team members and empower them to make a difference in the world. They help us be a good neighbor in our communities every day, and partner with organizations across the globe to run our business ethically and responsibly.

The best shopping experiences

There’s a reason so many guests call Target their happy place. We want every family to have a wonderful time — and feel safe, welcome and respected — every time they shop with us. And, we’re proud to be America’s easiest place to shop, with shopping options that include Target.com and the Target app, so guests can shop whenever and wherever they want for on-trend items and everyday essentials with incredible value.
