Hello Harry,<br />
<br />
Indeed a tricky area, particularly when working with overseas companies and limited ability to travel. Even big fashion companies have to carry out regular checks on their suppliers to make sure all aspects are respected.<br />
<br />
You must also take into consideration the type of product you are making as some countries have specialised factories for certain type of products or just are better at them than others.<br />

Try <a href="http://fashioninganethicalindustry.org" target="_blank">http://fashioninganethicalindustry.org</a> , they have some useful tips and info.<br />
<br />
If, however, you are still considering UK production, give me a ring or drop me an email. I run a small sampling and production unit in South Wimbledon and we have implemented many ethical and sustainable standards to our everyday practises.<br />
<br />
Good luck.<br />
<br />
All the best,<br />

Thanks Clare. I have heard about SA8000 although I have since been told there is a lot of fraud that goes on with this! I will take a look at WRAP and also ethical trade.<br />
<br />
Surprised there is not international body that is able to identify supply chains that are clean and then encourage companies like ourselves to produce via them.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help<br />

Complex area. Take a look at the Ethical Trading Intiative's website <a href="http://www.ethicaltrade.org" target="_blank">www.ethicaltrade.org</a>.<br />
<br />
There are a couple of Standards of varying quality: SA8000 and WRAP.
