Native Sun President and Founder, George Mitcheson, along with our on-staff colleagues/agents in China, have personally visited numerous factories with whom we partner. We have found clean, orderly facilities, with no child labor evident. As such, the concern for the contentment, comfort, and conditions of the workers in our partner-factories is very personal to all involved. We at Native Sun make clear to all of our trading partners that their compliance and adherence to the SA 8000 standards is important to us and the people we serve.
We applaud companies like The Gap for taking such a bold and public stance on conditions/improvement in their vendors' manufacturing facilties. It is an important step. |
