Goals and progress
Supply chain | Data
We monitor nearly 100 percent of our garment factories, in countries ranging from Peru to Sri Lanka. What this means in practice is that our Social Responsibility Specialists (SRSs) visit a factory through both announced and unannounced visits to establish relationships with management and workers and to gain an accurate picture of how the factory is run. When possible, they also develop relationships with local NGOs and trade unions, whose close ties with workers often enable them to provide our SRSs with information they would not otherwise uncover during a standard evaluation of a factory. Our presence signals to factories that we will hold them accountable for problems and expect them to meet the standards outlined in our Code of Vendor Conduct in order to work with us.
