Everyone has the right to a fair and safe working environment. With amfori, we’re ensuring the clothes you buy are produced through a healthy and transparent supply chain, compliant with international labour laws.
AMFORI AT A GLANCE
Amfori is a global organisation (over 2400 members worldwide) supporting environmental and human rights due diligence in supply chains. Their vision, 'Trade with purpose' heps members monitor and improve their supply chains to deliver social and environmental benefits. A partnership with amfori helps us ensure our products are manufactured without child labour, discrimination or unsafe worker conditions.
Since 2018, we joined amfori Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI) to tackle the big issues the fashion industry is facing surrounding worker rights and environmental protection.
To tackle the big issues the fashion industry is facing surrounding worker rights and environmental protection, we believe collaboration is key, which is why in 2018 we joined amfori Business Social Compliance Initiative. We understand that success in addressing the more complex issues involved with Modern Slavery cannot be achieved independently and therefore a collaborative approach is essential in developing solutions. Joining amfori we believe was an important step towards this.
Who is amfori?

WHY
amfori
There are big industry issues that can be hard to tackle as a small New Zealand business. We believe collaboration is key, which is why in 2018 we joined amfori Business Social Compliance Initiative. Working as part of a global collective, with an agreed international working standard, means more leverage for transformation within the fashion industry. Incorporating the amfori BSCI standards into our own code of conduct requirements means we’re taking a stand for better industry practice.
HOW
Safe standards for all
Amfori Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI) gives us access to world-class standards and tools that help us continuously maintain and improve our own processes of supply chain mapping, monitoring, remediation and education. Through our membership our suppliers also get access to training and education on the common issues that the industry face so that they can re-shape industry standards from within.
How amfori Works
Amfori BSCI is not a certification. This means brands and suppliers aren’t just handed a grade year after year with no direction or resources. Instead, they are an industry-driven supply chain management system, giving members access to world class standards and tools to improve our own processes of supply chain mapping, monitoring, and remediation.
