Another Tomorrow, Ralph Lauren, Foster Grant and more are making moves for material sustainability and supply chain transparency.
On Tuesday, the Open Apparel Registry , a nonprofit aiming to expand standardized supply chain disclosure in the apparel sector, saw expanded development.
Accessible via Openapparel.org, the OAR is a free, open data tool mapping garment facilities worldwide and allocating a unique ID to each. In essence, the registry added new data points like number of workers, parent company, type of product, type of facility and type of processing. A number of brands — among them Another Tomorrow, Antigua, C&A, Columbia Sportswear Company, Mountain Equipment Company , Ralph Lauren Corporation, Rapha and Ted Baker plc — voluntarily provided the data.
“As a luxury brand, we are proud to share data about our supply chain on the Open Apparel Registry, including the additional data points launching today,” said Tara St James, vice president of, supply chain and culture at Another Tomorrow. “As well as being vital for our own transparency commitments, we see great potential in openly sharing supply chain data to collectively create the change we hope to see throughout the global apparel industry.
“We’re thrilled to accelerate the pace at which buyers and sellers of materials participate in the circular economy,” said Phil Derasmo, Queen of Raw cofounder and chief officer. “By making sustainability metrics quick and easy to access, enterprises meet consumer demands for greater transparency and consumers make informed choices, track their sustainability progress and get rewarded for supporting the planet.”
