Highly impossible to trace complex supply chain
The complex supply chain for the majority of high street and fast fashion brands that have enormous sales volumes is simply not fully traceable. It is impossible to know every link in the chain for companies managing thousands of factories and suppliers in some of the world's poorest nations.So while the level of campaigning and commitment was high, it was the familiar themes of making the world a better place and fashion as a great place to start. The sense was of a crowd of industry figures genuinely committed to and invested in sustainability, gathering together to reassure themselves of the good work going on but leaving with few new ideas, noted the Guardian.
