Unlock Success: Identifying Ethical Brands and Suppliers
Introduction
Working with ethical brands and suppliers is a key strategy to ensure a rights-respecting supply chain in the fashion industry. This section will equip you with the tools to identify such brands and suppliers.
Identifying Ethical Brands
Ethical brands prioritize fair treatment of workers, sustainable sourcing, and transparency. They often have clear CSR policies, are certified by third-party bodies, and have a history of positive labour practices.
Working with Ethical Suppliers
It's equally important to work with ethical suppliers, who ensure fair wages, safe working conditions, and no child or forced labour. They should also be transparent about their practices and open to audits.
