BEIJING – Levi’s and Tesco have become the latest brands to join the Green Supply Chain Map; a publicly available online transparency tool that ties companies to their suppliers’ environmental performance in China.
Developed by the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and the Institute of Public & Environmental Affairs (IPE), the Green Supply Chain Map collates data from the Chinese government and member brands to map out and monitor the individual performance of supplier factories based around China.
The online tool, launched at the start of the year, details the names, addresses and geolocations of supplier facilities and provides real-time emissions data, feedback about corrective actions and resource usage information.
