Responsible Business
Initiatives

In June 2018, the coalition wrote to and began engaging with seven widely known company-backed responsible business initiatives (RBIs) in the apparel industry that purport to promote more ethical practices among their corporate members.

The coalition urged these RBIs to require as a condition of membership that companies individually and publicly disclose information about their supply chains, at a minimum in alignment with the Transparency Pledge standard. Prior to the engagement by the coalition, none of the seven RBIs had firmly linked the transparency of individual corporate members’ supply chains to their membership requirements.

The section below summarizes what the RBIs have done or committed to do through November 2019. For more detailed information and the coalition’s full assessment, take a look at the coalition’s 2019 report, Fashion’s Next Trend.

full alignment

None reported

For an RBI to be in full alignment, the following conditions must be met: 1) the RBI requires all member companies to align with the Pledge as a condition of membership; and 2) all member companies are in compliance (i.e., disclosing in alignment with the Pledge).

significant progress

The Fair Labor Association (FLA)
In November 2019, the FLA announced a requirement that all of its member brands and retailers must publicly disclose supply chain information, aligned with the Transparency Pledge standard, and make the information available in accessible open data formats by March 31, 2022. The Fair Labor Association estimates over 50 brands and retailers will be required to follow this new policy and, from April 2022, may be subject to a special board review if they do not comply.

The UK Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI)
In 2024, the ETI took a positive step forward and mandated corporate members to disclose their supply chain information directly onto the Open Supply Hub, which is significant. However, the ETI does not make it mandatory to publish all datapoints needed for compliance with the Transparency Pledge. And it is unclear what happens to companies that do not comply with the ETI's mandate; one of their largest members, Inditex, has not published any data on the Open Supply Hub.

some progress

Dutch Agreement on Sustainable Garments and Textiles (AGT)
AGT has not made supply chain transparency of individual members a condition of membership, but requires its members to disclose information about their supplier factories to the AGT secretariat that is made public in aggregate form through the Open Supply Hub.

little progress

The Fair Wear Foundation (FWF)
The FWF committed to make available on its website a searchable database of manufacturing units (aggregate only) that its corporate members disclose to the FWF secretariat. The FWF stated that this aggregate database would reveal data as required in the Transparency Pledge standard and that it was expected to be launched in the first quarter of 2020. But at the end of 2020 the database only included 10% of their facilities. The FWF also outlined plans to make available a standalone aggregate list of information about all "disclosed factories" of FWF corporate members. However, the FWF also wrote that it would allow its corporate members to opt out of having information about their supplier factories appear in the searchable database and the standalone aggregate list.

German Partnership for Sustainable Textiles (PST)
the Partnership has published an initial aggregated list of suppliers with a total of around 6,900 production facilities from 23 member companies on the Open Supply Hub platform. However, there is no requirement for member companies to publish individually, or even aggregated.
