In March 2021, Boohoo — the infamous fast fashion giant — was forced to list all their current suppliers on their web site. Although the company purchases garments from across the UK the vast majority are obtained from 69 different sites situated across Leicester (sites that employ a total of 2,210 people).
Considering that Boohoo has now apparently stopped using many of their sweatshop-styled suppliers they are now saying that the following companies are all ethical employers. Whether this is this case remains to be confirmed by independent investigations conducted by trades unions which should have already started by now.
