On August 13, 2024, the Ethical Supply Chain Program announced its collaboration with Open Supply Hub, aiming to make supply chain data more open, accessible, and trustworthy through a global data platform. This partnership enables factories certified by the Ethical Supply Chain Program to publish their details on Open Supply Hub, allowing for greater transparency and visibility.
As part of this collaboration, data from nearly 700 ethically certified factories has been added to the Open Supply Hub platform and will be updated bi-annually. This initiative benefits both buyers and suppliers by offering a broader selection of ethical suppliers and enabling factories to be more easily discovered by potential business partners. The platform complements the Ethical Supply Chain Program’s existing sourcing tool, Connect, used by members to share and manage ethical supply chain information.
This collaboration marks a significant step toward building a more transparent and responsible global supply chain.
