TROYグループの倫理的調達と持続可能性への取り組み

Sustainability has become an important criterion for both consumers and brands interested in reducing the impact of their everyday activities on the environment. For brands, sustainability can be achieved through the implementation of diverse initiatives including energy efficiency, utilizing eco-friendly raw materials, and implementing ethical sourcing. For consumers, corporate sustainability is enforced by transacting exclusively with brands whose operations meet their ethical sensibilities.

Consumer surveys highlight the importance of sustainability and ethical sourcing to end users. An Open Text survey conducted across 12 countries showed that 81% of consumers stated that purchasing ethically sourced products matters to them. In the United States, 88% of consumers will boycott a brand for irresponsible business activities and 56% of consumers will stop transacting with brands they believe are unethical.

Understanding Ethical Sourcing

Ethical sourcing focuses on obtaining raw materials and services from third-party suppliers who uphold responsible business practices that protect the environment and are free from human rights violations. These violations may include forced labor, the use of child labor, unfair wages, and unsafe working conditions.

Businesses across the industrial sector that fail to ensure that their supply chain meets ethical sourcing standards may face both legal penalties and social backlash. Here, legal penalties include fines from governmental agencies, product recalls, and seizure of production facilities. The social backlash businesses face from unethical sourcing includes reputational losses, social boycotts, and the loss of the business’s customer base. Unethical sourcing could also make it difficult for businesses to secure funding from investors and financial institutions which puts the viability of an enterprise at risk.
