Fashion Revolution+3.3 Raw Materials Suppliers Disclosure+methodology

In this question you are being asked to identify what information the company publishes about its suppliers of raw materials. Start by looking for a list of raw material suppliers (e.g. raw material providers, farms, slaughter houses, sewing yarn suppliers, filament and staple, chemical suppliers, etc.)

Where to look for this information:
- Corporate Social Responsibility report
- Company documents
- Company policies
- Company websites
- Company code of conduct
- Parent company documents (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)
- Parent company policies (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)
- Parent company websites (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)
- Parent company code of conduct (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)

Good keywords for your searches include:
- Raw materials
- Supplier list
- Sourcing

Things to watch out for:
- May only be publishing for one type of raw material. e.g. cotton or wool.
- Where brands says their list includes "all" their suppliers, we assume this means 100% and we give them the point
- If brand says list updated every X months accepted
- We are looking for a map or list that represents a significant proportion of their suppliers. Disclosing one or two suppliers is not sufficient unless it specifies that these suppliers supply a significant chunk of the company's overall product volume. However, will accept if list covers only one or two types of fibre such as viscose, wool, cotton, etc.
- Online maps and PDF documents do not count as not machine readable. Looking specifically for Excel or csv documents.
- Efforts to trace raw materials might include taking part in Leather Working Group or using Responsible Down/Wool Standard, Global Recycling Standard, Content Claim Standard, Organic Cotton Standard, GOTS, FAIRTRADE Certified Cotton Mark and Cotton Programme, Cotton Made in Africa HIP, Oeko-Tex SteP/Made in Green or company/parent group's own initiatives such as using blockchain or transaction certifications or DNA schemes.
