As a business that puts people at the heart of our decision making, upholding the human rights of the people
who produce garments for our business is a priority. We recognise the risks of poor labour practices, human
rights abuses and modern slavery in complex global supply chains and we are committed to establishing robust
due diligence programmes and collaborating with others from the industry, authorities and NGOs to tackle poor
practices and protect those people who are most vulnerable.

ARTLoe Limited
We want to operate a business that is fair to all and we are working hard to live up to this. We know that
there is a lot to do to fix the fashion industry and we want to play a positive role. We believe the
commitments we have made and the progress we are making will drive the change needed.
our supply chain
Unlike many other retailers, we source a large proportion of our products from suppliers based in the Africa, India & Europe.
However, manufacturers in Europe and Asia are also important to us. The factories that we work with
range from small family run facilities, to larger higher volume units, we share the majority of these
production units with many other high street retailers.
product supply chain
Our strengthened product supply chain due diligence programme is in place to ensure that we can:
Monitor in adherence with our Supplier Code of Conduct effectively.
Understand the key risks to workers and can respond to issues identified.
Drive improvements through our supply chain. As Africa, India & Europe is such an important sourcing market for us, we started there.
Continue to develop our sourcing and ethical trade structures within all of the territories we source product
from.
mapping our supply chain
Starting with our Africa, India & Europe manufacturing base we mapped our suppliers and the associated factories that produce our
garments. Working with external experts we have assessed their adherence to our Code of Conduct.
A more consolidated supply chain will ensure that we can maintain the level of oversight
required to ensure that workers’ rights are protected. We intend to maintain our total UK sourcing volumes
and believe that the steps we are taking will drive significant improvements in the garment industry
and will help secure its future.
