'As part of our diligence processes for certain suppliers we conduct supplier site visits. We currently visit all Cowshed suppliers and their factories to check how they are preforming. We are rolling out site visits for major suppliers as well as those suppliers we deem high risk for the remainder of the business over the forthcoming year. In order to ensure we get a realistic assessment of conditions, we will conduct some of these site visits unannounced.' (page 3).

Also states that to ensure robust supply chain assessment 'audits, site visits, requests for further diligence on suppliers and issues flagged and escalated to management team/relevant committee' will occur.
