You can’t fix what you don’t know is broken. You need knowledge about your supply chain before you can weed out social responsibility risks or monitor and improve environmental metrics. Sourcing Journal’s Sustainability Summit: The Road to 2030 will include sessions on better knowing your supply chain. Learn how traceability can provide a thorough view of your supply chain, and discover what you might have wrong about cotton’s sustainability profile. Hear first-hand from expert speakers, and ask them your questions at this in-person event.
PANELS INCLUDE:
SECURING (TRACING) THE LINKS ON YOUR SUPPLY CHAIN
Chain of custody has never been more important, nor under more scrutiny. From ensuring your goods are produced without the use of forced labor or banned cotton, to the ability to vet your sustainability claims, it’s imperative to incorporate both responsibility and traceability into your process.
DEBUNKING COTTON MYTHS
Cotton has been in the crosshairs of misconceptions and misinformation for some time in regards to the true nature of its effect on the environment and the role it plays in a sustainable future. From criticism on water usage to the use of pesticides, this panel discusses those concerns and looks to separate the truths from the myths surrounding the world’s most natural fiber.
FIRESIDE CHATS: TAPESTRY, SHEIN & GILDAN
In these intimate sessions, Sourcing Journal founder and president Edward Hertzman will sit down for one-on-one conversations with leading sustainability executives from top brands who will take us through their green evolutions. These will offer an in-depth examination of where they began, where they are at now, and what lies ahead on the Road to 2030.
