Slavery & Human Trafficking transparency Statement - Flipbook - Page 12
OUR SUPPLIER
CATEGORIES
In 2025, we renamed our Modern Slavery Statement to the
Slavery & Human Trafficking Statement to better reflect the full
scope of risks we aim to address.
While the term modern slavery is commonly used, it can
sometimes obscure the specific forms of abuse covered under UK
law and international frameworks. By adopting the title Slavery &
Human Trafficking, we align more clearly with the language and
intent of the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015, which explicitly targets:
Slavery
Servitude
Forced or compulsory labour
Human trafficking for labour or sexual exploitation
This change reflects our growing focus on human rights due
diligence, our newly introduced RSPS Framework, and our efforts
to more transparently identify and address risks across complex
supply chains.
Our supply chain
At SMI, we take a strategic and proactive approach to identifying
and mitigating risks across our global value chain, particularly
those that could impact the ethical flow of goods and services.
As part of our commitment to responsible sourcing, we are
working to diversify our ROKWEAR® supply base, with a goal of
100% de-risking through dual sourcing from multiple countries.
Currently, we partner with 12 factories to manufacture our
ROKWEAR® brand, and as our business expands into new product
categories, we are actively pursuing additional sourcing
opportunities.
