Today’s factories are faced with rising costs of material and labor, pressure from retailers for lower pricing, tougher business regulations and more exacting social and environmental requirements. Pearl Global Sourcing (PGS) suggests factories in their efforts to improve performance and meet their needs for capability building on a variety of social, environmental and other topics. Our goal is to equip suppliers with the skills to develop their businesses sustainably and drive their own continuous improvement. Our capacity building guidelines include a variety of modules that address labor practices, health & safety, environmental sustainability, risk assessment, security.
