Amy Hall, vice-president social consciousness, Eileen Fisher talks with Ian Welsh about why it is so hard for the apparel sector to look deep into its supply chain given companies simply have, traditionally, so little influence beyond tier one.

They discuss how brands can reach back to farmers and suppliers to achieve real supply chain traceability, the use of “better” chemistry in the manufacturing process and the potential of circular models in the sector.
