Supply chain.
At Kid’s Concept we are proud of our supply chain partners that take incredible pride in their craftmanship and high quality work. We share common values and often a long history of cooperation.
Did you know?
Our suppliers are based in China, India, Sweden and Eastern Europe. We have worked with the vast majority of our suppliers, and some from when we started in 2007. We have always prioritized to know our suppliers well and on a personal level. That is possible because we have a local quality management team based in Hong Kong. They are dedicated to visit the factories and work with them to make sure that our high quality standards and our focus on good social and environmental standards are ensured.
We work with a Supplier's Guide that defines all the requirements a factory must meet to be able to deliver to Kid's Concept. It defines our principles on human rights and labour conditions, as well as requirements for chemical and environmental management. 97% of our suppliers have signed our Supplier’s Guide.
Due Diligence Guidance.
With respect to environmental protection all our wood is living up to the EU Timber Regulation preventing trade of illegally harvested timber with 42% of our wood being FSC certified and thereby documenting that it is sourced from sustainable managed forests with good social conditions.
The BSCI also verifies that our suppliers live up to all legal requirements regarding environmental protection. However, our Due Diligence has shown us that we want to go further than this. In the coming years we will work closer with our suppliers on improving their environmental impact with focus on reduction of fossil energy use, CO2 emissions and water consumption.
