LUPC ceremonial gowns supply chain mapping exercise

20 August 2021      Ashley Shelbrooke, HEPA and Project Specialist

LUPC began a supply chain mapping exercise focusing on ceremonial gowns in 2019, the case study from which you can read here.

Following on from this LUPC recently asked their suppliers:

  • Where the raw materials for their gowns come from
  • The social and environmental impacts of production on garment industries
  • Due diligence practices in their supply chains, including the monitoring of working conditions

You can read the latest findings based on these questions in the August 2021 report here.
