Transparency in Supply Chains
About the data
Why is that important? Supply chain transparency allows workers and trade unions to know which brands source from a specific factory and allows them to report issues and campaign or negotiate for higher wages directly with a brand. It allows for independent investigations in the suppling factories and helps to monitor if a company has a stable supplier base with long lasting business relationships.
