Audits & Supplier Certification

Supplier Certification

Full EHS & Social Audit Program, with ongoing support for factories and their business partners after audits are conducted and data transparency supported by our Connect platform.

The program reduces audit duplication for suppliers and streamlines the supplier qualification process for buyers and sourcing businesses. Certification means no non-compliances left outstanding, it also means ongoing support for both the factories and their business partners.
