Luxury Prada, Chanel And So On Are Being Used In Secret Supply Chains.

According to the latest news from the US media,

Chanel and others were used in secret supply chain.

Some of the world's most famous clothing brands, including Forever 21 and Michael Kors, were also attacked by a new report, saying they did not disclose their supply chain to consumers.

According to the report, according to the pparency of the apparel brand supply chain report,

Companies including Prada, Fendi and Hermes are among the worst, while Chanel is at the bottom.

Designer Pamela Love said that clothes manufactured according to ethical standards are very important. We must stop and avoid manufacturing processes that deprive others of their normal working life.

Fashion Revolution and Ethical Consumer, a leading organization of the fashion industry, ranked 40 major fashion companies according to their openness to the supply chain. It was found that almost 40% of the enterprises had no monitoring system to monitor whether their factory operation was in line with labor standards.

Behind the fashion "sweatshop" show, fashions are beautiful and attractive. On the other side, few workers are concerned about the tears and struggles of the bottom workers.

Over the past three years, the collapse of the Bangladesh factory has killed more than one thousand people and injured more than 2500 people. The report found that for consumers and even fashion companies, "who made my clothes" is still hard to answer.

In April 24th, the anniversary of the collapse of the Rana Plaza factory in Bangladesh, the organization encouraged consumers to ask clothing companies any questions about their supply chain, including where the raw materials came from, and who made the materials.

The report points out: "as a luxury fashion brand, lack of pparency is a disrespect for life.

It is impossible to ensure that human rights are respected and environmental provisions are trampled without knowing where their products are produced and who is producing under what conditions.

The top ranked enterprise is Levi Strauss & Co, followed by Zara owned Inditex group and H&M with Cheap Monday and Other Stories product line.

Although the report praises the pparency of the supply chain of these companies, it warns that high pparency ratings do not mean that clothing will not be produced under dangerous conditions.

Take H&M as an example, while having a high pparency ranking, another propaganda organization criticized the company for "serious delay" in building maintenance of 32 factories supplying garments in Bangladesh.

Several groups have criticized H&M for its slow improvement after expressing its support for the Bangladesh fire and construction safety agreement, which was signed jointly by 100 brands after the collapse of Rana Plaza.

H&M has 80% of its garments from Asia, and 69 garment factories in Bangladesh, Kampuchea and Mainland China.

Scott Nova, Worker Rights Consortium, said in a statement: "the Bangladesh agreement has lasted for more than two and a half years, and every maintenance project authorized by H&M supplier should have been completed.

However, it is regrettable that almost no H&M factory in Bangladesh can be called safety.

The US media VICE contacted the brands in a few pparency index rankings, and asked if they were able to tell about the supply chain if the report was true, only H&M and Lululemon responded.

H&M spokesman Ulrika Isaksson expressed gratifying results on the pparency index and said: "we believe that pparency index is the key driver to promote the sustainable development of fashion brands. We will strive to further enhance the pparency of the entire value chain."

As for the Bangladesh agreement on plant safety, Ulrika Isaksson said: "H&M suppliers have reported that all required items including all folding, sliding or rolling doors in all factories have been removed."

The mandatory safety work has been completed, including emergency exits, emergency lighting, fire alarm, fire extinguishers, evacuation plans and regular evacuation drills.

Lululemon is in the middle and low range of pparency index. The brand introduces the sustainable development section of its website to the media. It says the company is taking measures to reduce carbon emissions, water and waste generated in the production process, but does not point out where their products are produced.

The report points out that fashion supply chains are often very complex, and many brands do not own their own garment factories.

"Some brands may work together in thousands of factories at the same time. This is just a device for cutting, sewing and stitching clothes, as well as a further equipment factory for dyeing, weaving and finishing, and even a fiber planting farm."

Fashion Revolution revealed that the organization sent questionnaires to 40 fashion companies, but received only 10 replies.

The other 30 companies were graded according to the information they released publicly.

The report said: "for companies that do not respond, it is impossible for researchers to know any information that has not been released on the Internet.

As a result, these companies will get lower scores. Conversely, companies who fill out questionnaires may disclose more information, so they may get higher scores.

Although the release of the report coincided with the eve of the collapse of a Canadian giant Loblaws in the production of Joe Fresh clothing, Loblaws and Joe Fresh were not mentioned in the report 1st anniversary.

Fashion Revolution said they were mainly based on annual turnover to select fashion brands.

Fashion Revolution said it hopes to expand the number of brands surveyed to 100 next year. In 2017, the target will focus on fashion brands or retailers with an annual turnover of at least 36 million dollars.

Nowadays, many fashion brands do not really understand where their clothes come from. Most of the brand foundry production does not take charge of production equipment in person, making it difficult to monitor everything, so it is difficult to control the working environment of the supply chain.

Recently, The Associated Press reported that "every fish you eat may be stained with another person's blood and tears", which has attracted worldwide attention. Similarly, clothes worn by consumers may also be "sweatshops" in production.

Besides illegal workers, the fashionable goods you buy may also involve other evil activities.

A documentary called "The True Cost" was widely circulated in New York, London, Losangeles and the Internet, revealing the bloody truth behind these large fashion retail chains.

Statistics show that over the past 15 years, 250 thousand cotton farmers in India have committed suicide because of fast fashion.

According to Business Insider, Third World

Workers can only get the minimum wage, but there is no sense of security in their work.

Their health was produced by chemicals that produced cheap cloth from T-shirts, which ended up in Western stores at a price of 5 US dollars.

The number of garments produced now is 400% of that 20 years ago.

Authoritative fashion trend expert Li Edelkoort analysis said: fashion has come to an end, let alone the sweatshops that have been heard in the fashion industry have not yet been completely solved, and many people in many countries have lost their lives to make our clothes.
