LEICESTER - Labour Behind the Label has welcomed the publication of an independent inquiry into Boohoo’s Leicester supply chain as a "damning indictment" of the fast fashion retailer's practices, culture and failings.
And the charity urged the UK government to act to "curb the abusive business practices of brands" and to "urgently assess" the need for mandatory due diligence.
The investigation, led by Alison Levitt QC, concluded there were “many failings" in Boohoo's working practices and recommended improvements to the company’s related corporate governance, compliance and monitoring processes.
