BSCI Certification
Business Social Compliance Initiative — independent social audit and worker welfare standards
What is BSCI?
BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative), now operating under the amfori association, is a leading social compliance programme for retailers, importers, and brands committed to improving working conditions in their global supply chains. Over 2,500 companies across 40+ countries participate in the amfori BSCI programme.
Independent third-party auditors assess participating factories against the BSCI Code of Conduct, which covers eleven social performance areas including fair remuneration, decent working hours, health and safety, and prohibition of child and forced labour.
Social Audit and Worker Welfare
Our BSCI audit covers all production areas of our factory, including manufacturing floors, packaging areas, and management systems. Auditors conduct worker interviews, document reviews, and facility inspections to assess compliance with the BSCI Code of Conduct.
Our most recent audit results are available through the amfori BSCI platform. Buyers who are amfori members can access our audit report directly, eliminating the need for duplicate factory assessments.
Why European Retailers Require BSCI
Major European supermarkets and retail groups — including those in Germany, France, the UK, and the Nordic countries — require BSCI certification or equivalent social compliance audits as a mandatory supplier qualification criterion.
As a BSCI-certified manufacturer, we are pre-qualified for many European retail supply chains without requiring additional social audits, reducing your sourcing costs and time-to-list.

Verify Our Audit Results on the amfori Platform
If your company is an amfori member, our most recent BSCI audit report is accessible directly on the amfori BSCI platform — no duplicate audit required. Non-members can request a copy of our audit summary by contacting us. We do not ask you to take our compliance claims on faith.
Our factory is registered on the amfori BSCI platform with Supply Chain Mapping enabled (Factory ID: 156-021302-000). This means European retail partners have formally mapped our facility in their supply chains — an additional layer of third-party verification beyond the audit report. Buyers who are amfori members can trace our factory's compliance status, audit history, and supply chain relationships directly on the platform.
What BSCI Grade C Means — And Why It Matters
Our commitment: We disclose our current Grade C openly because we believe transparency is the strongest trust signal. Annual re-audits and continuous improvement are built into our quality management system (ISO 9001:2015). You can verify our audit status directly on the amfori BSCI platform — no need to take our word for it.
Audit History — 5 Years of Consistent Compliance
Six consecutive amfori BSCI social audits since 2021 — every single one rated Grade C or higher. Consistency matters more than a single high score: it tells your compliance team that our factory conditions are stable, not window-dressed for audit day.
