Collective action and partnerships with key organisations are crucial for amplifying impact and driving systemic change on ESG issues – partnering with these organisations accelerates Reiss' progress on environmental, social, and governance issues.
Reiss has been a member of the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) since 2017, beginning at Foundation level and becoming a full member in 2019. The ETI is an alliance of companies, trade unions and NGOs that promote respect for workers’ rights around the globe.
In 2023, Reiss began a partnership with Next plc, adopting the Next plc Code of Practice as a framework for supply chain due diligence and benefitting from a wider network of in-country auditors, thereby significantly increasing our capacity to monitor labour conditions and identify issues of concern. Further information about our programme can be found in our Modern Slavery Statement and policies.
Reiss has partnered with Segura, a supply chain mapping software provider, to gain greater visibility into our entire operation. This enhanced traceability empowers us to meet our commitments regarding responsible sourcing and ethical production.
By publishing our tier 1 suppliers on Open Supply Hub, we're increasing transparency throughout our supply chain and demonstrating our commitment to open collaboration.
