Compliance and Quality

Adhering to established standards, industry regulations, and government rules is paramount across diverse industries. Within the apparel sector, strict adherence to recognized production standards becomes especially crucial to ensure the creation of top-notch products, achieve production targets, and optimize profits. Attaining social compliance in garment factories presents a notable challenge, and regrettably, its global implementation is not consistent. This inconsistency is largely due to the substantial costs associated with compliance, deterring some organizations from fully embracing it. Additionally, given that garment factories are predominantly situated in developing nations like China, Bangladesh, and India, instances of inexpensive, forced, or child labor often escape attention.
