Our Mission
Supply Trace exists to inspire and challenge businesses, and other stakeholders, to eradicate abuses in global supply chains.
It does this by highlighting potential risk from evidence curated by our research.
What is Supply Trace?
Supply Trace is an accessible, open platform that exposes potential risks in global supply chains. In its pilot phase, it focuses on the apparel sector and links between forced labor in the Uyghur Region of China and shipments to the US.
Much of the risk data currently available in Supply Trace exists elsewhere, but access is limited by costly pay-walls. This makes it prohibitive to many stakeholders in global supply chains, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and civil society organizations.
By Comparison
Supply Trace is available for anyone to search who has an interest in better understanding supply chain conditions, including companies, government, civil society and more.
By democratizing access to information on risks within global supply chains, our hope is that abuses will be remediated, resulting in improved supply chain conditions for all.
