Let's clean up fashion 2009
22/11/2010
Primark welcomes Labour Behind the Label’s Let’s Clean Up Fashion report, and notes its careful assessment of the company's work and its acknowledgement that Primark has raised standards quickly in this area.
In the last year alone the company has doubled the number of audits across the factories which supply it; appointed a Director of Ethical Trade; appointed additional ethical trade managers in region; trained its buyers, senior personnel and suppliers in ethical trading; begun projects with two NGOs; and implemented a new online audit
management system.
However, Primark further notes Labour Behind the Label’s (LBTL) constructive comments and agrees that the company, like other brands, has more to do. As a result Primark is committed to working with LBTL and other partners to further improve its sourcing practices in the year ahead.
