    Stained Supply Chains
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2021-12-17) Vásquez Martínez, Laura Isabel; Universidad EAFIT
    Nowadays the fashion industry has impressive proportions. Production volumes have increased at an accelerated rhythm within the last 20 years. The pressure for costs’ reduction and the desire of the consumers to acquire every time more clothing has led to the enterprises to engage in stained pro-duction processes. Exploitation of the employees and environmental pollution are involved in their practices. This essay aims to expose labor conditions that this industrial sector offers in the Asian continent, mainly in China and India. It concludes that workers’ abuse is intrinsically present in the productive stage of the fashion supply chain.
