The apparel industry is under mounting pressure to increase the level of transparency into its products and processes. Led by savvy consumers and fueled by a handful of vocal competitors in the space, it’s becoming expected for fashion firms to be able to verify what’s happening in their supply chains.

This 45-minute webinar is about how brands and retailers are adapting to answer the call. Plus, we share a first look at the results from Sourcing Journal’s exclusive research report conducted on behalf of Cotton Incorporated, which provides insights into how far the industry has come and how far it has to go. (Read the full Transparency 2019 report here.)

In this webinar, we will:

• Discuss the benefits of operating a transparent supply chain

• Analyze the challenges holding the apparel industry back
• Reveal where your peers are on the road to transparency

Speakers:

• Garry Bell, vice president, corporate marketing and communications, Gildan Activewear
