From the beginning, CHANEL has been a manufacturing company. Most of our finished products are assembled in factories we own or we control, mostly in France, Italy, and Switzerland. These factories have a large network of suppliers of raw materials, product components, and nonsalable promotional materials. Our due diligence approach consists of three key components: 1 CLEAR POLICIES AND GUIDANCE GOVERNING THE SUPPLIER RELATIONSHIP. 2 RIGOROUS PROCESSES TO ASSESS AND REMEDIATE HUMAN-RIGHTS RISKS AND IMPACTS. 3 PERFORMANCE MONITORING AND COMPLIANCE AUDITING, AS WELL AS ONGOING DIALOGUE, ENGAGEMENT, AND IMPROVEMENT.
