Impacts, risks and opportunities: RevolutionRace's supply chain employs over 15,000 people, mainly in high-risk regions for human rights and labor conditions. Issues include forced and child labor, discrimination, and safety risks. Primary impacts occur with direct suppliers in product manufacturing and cotton sourcing, with potential reputational and legal risks if conditions are deemed unacceptable.
Policies and approach: RevolutionRace follows a Supplier Code of Conduct based on international standards. As a member of Amfori, it uses BSCI audits to ensure compliance and addresses issues through direct engagement with suppliers. The company prioritizes six focus areas, including working with compliant suppliers, health and safety monitoring, and mitigating forced and child labor risks.
2023/24 actions and progress: RevolutionRace maintained stable supplier relationships, increased factory collaboration, and prioritized auditing, with 72% of production in China and Vietnam. Ongoing efforts target overtime reduction, grievance mechanisms, and health and safety improvements.
Plans for 2024/25: Focus areas include enhancing grievance mechanisms, increasing supplier visits, mapping beyond Tier 2 suppliers, and prioritizing worker safety amid regional unrest in Bangladesh.
For RevolutionRace, it is important that we share a vision with our ambassadors and partners, so that together we can create added value over the long term.
