True Brands, the parent company behind renowned brands including Viski, Twine Living, and Collins Mixers of Chicago, is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of quality, integrity, and responsibility. In alignment with our commitment to ethical business practices, we seek to collaborate with suppliers who share our values and embrace fair labor practices, environmental sustainability, and transparent operations. This Factory Code of Conduct outlines the principles that guide our partnerships with suppliers to ensure the production of exceptional products without compromise.
Transparent and Ethical Partnerships
At True Brands, we believe in fostering open communication and ethical business practices with our suppliers. Transparency is the bedrock of our strong partnerships. We require full disclosure of factory locations and daily operations to maintain visibility and guarantee that products from our brands meet the expectations of consumers regarding quality and integrity. Our commitment to transparency extends to understanding workforce policies and environmental impacts, enabling us to make informed decisions. Collaboration with our suppliers is essential to address any issues promptly, as we take responsibility for every stage of product development and delivery. Absolute transparency regarding factory locations, working conditions, business operations, and impacts is non-negotiable for True Brands suppliers. We value open collaboration as it strengthens our relationships with suppliers, allowing us to work towards shared goals.
Safe and Fair Treatment of Workers
True Brands is dedicated to ensuring the well-being of the individuals who contribute to the manufacturing of our products. We partner with suppliers who prioritize the health and safety of workers, fair compensation, and a workplace free from discrimination and mistreatment. Furthermore, we require that all suppliers refrain from any form of forced or child labor. Our partners must comply with regulations such as the Modern Slavery Act, which prohibits slavery, servitude and forced or compulsory labor as well as human trafficking in supply chains. By working with suppliers who uphold ethical labor standards, we aim to ensure safe and fair treatment for all workers who enable our products.
Environmental Stewardship
As a conscientious company, True Brands recognizes the significance of minimizing environmental impacts while striving for business success. We are dedicated to learning and evolving in our approach to sustainability. We encourage our suppliers to actively reduce waste, emissions, water use, and adopt sustainability best practices through continuous improvement. True Brands is committed to an ongoing journey of understanding and implementing sustainable initiatives and looks forward to learning from our partners in this collective effort.
Community Engagement
True Brands places great importance on suppliers that actively and positively engage with the communities where they operate. We believe in fostering partnerships that contribute to local economies and enhance the overall quality of life in the communities they serve. Recognizing the interconnectedness of businesses and the communities they impact, True Brands encourages suppliers to collaborate with local stakeholders, support community development initiatives, and contribute to the well-being of the people in their operational areas. We seek partners who share our commitment to social responsibility and community enrichment, fostering relationships that go beyond transactional engagements and contribute positively to society as a whole.
By collaborating with ethical suppliers committed to fairness, safety, and sustainability, True Brands ensures that consumers receive products from our brands that consistently meet our high standards. Our Factory Code of Conduct reflects our dedication to responsible business practices and ethical production.
