Brands

Brands (also called Retailers, Retail Brands, Wholesalers, Licensors, Buyers, etc.) strive to meet the demands of the end consumer.  Brands create products based on the Consumers needs and requests.  Brands may have vast Global supply chains with a multitude of stakeholders. The sizes of these companies vary greatly, and some have a limited compliance programs both in terms of staffing and budgeting while others have established programs.

Brands are under constant pressure from customers, NGO’s, activists, and other stakeholders who demand that their supply chains conduct business both in a socially & environmentally responsible manner.   The compliance challenges that are faced by most Brands are endless.  The use of Global supply chains, especially in underdeveloped countries, often produce serious concerns such as illegal subcontracting, bonded labor, polluting issues, etc. A successful compliance program or plan relieves compliance challenges and eventually maximizes supply chain productivity.
