Responsible Sourcing or Sustainable Sourcing is the integration of social, ethical and environmental performance factors into the entire supply chain of any product or commodity – from cradle to shelf.

Responsible sourcing is important for global supply chains to expand into developing countries seeking lower costs and greater production capacity.

In absence of a responsible or sustainable supply chain, brands may face business risks like supply disruption, cost volatility, compliance with local laws and regulations, and above all brand reputation.

Companies are expected to meet the growing expectations of their stakeholders like customers, shareholders, employees, Pressure Groups, trade unions and statutory bodies.
