Mention of supporting suppliers, however, does not specify how.

 

"Throughout the pandemic, we kept in close contact with our suppliers to understand the issues they were facing and addressed how we could support one another. These regular online meetings with our manufacturing partners meant that we could keep up to date on the COVID response in our various sourcing." (Pg. 1)

 

"Post pandemic we have been focused on catching up on audits after 2 years of disruption and lockdowns when auditors were legally unable to visit some of our factories. We have had to be pragmatic on timeframes for improvement over this period and have occasionally given suppliers extensions on a case-by-case basis in order to give them sufficient time to remediate, given the extraordinary circumstances." (Pg. 4)
