List of factories entrusted with the manufacturing of products

Disclosure of the basic information on factories entrusted with the manufacturing of our products

Supply chains for textiles and apparel begin with product planning and design in the countries and regions where the products will be sold. Almost all of our products are shipped to their respective markets after processing through international networks in which the production or procurement of raw materials and the sewing and manufacturing of finished products are carried out in China or emerging countries in the ASEAN region. Established in October 2017, the “Wacoal Group CSR Procurement Guidelines” declare that “in order to fulfill our social responsibilities, we must build close partnerships with all suppliers involved in our product manufacturing activities, and together with them we must comply with and respect society’s requirements with regard to not only quality, pricing, and delivery but also human rights, labor practices, the environment, and ethics.” Since February 2018, we have been conducting a management cycle that continuously amends and improves the guidelines in light of careful monitoring of compliance with the guidelines. Further, Wacoal has been disclosing the basic information of contract manufacturers that endorse disclosure since May 2018.
