300 participants at 19th Supplier Forum for Responsible Sourcing in Miami

On March 4th over 300 suppliers and buyers from the Fast Moving Consumer Goods industry met in Miami, Florida, to discuss responsible sourcing principles, best practice and experiences.

Mutual Recognition of audits takes a further leap

Mutual Recognition of supplier audits is a founding pillar of AIM-PROGRESS. "An audit for one is an audit for all" is one of the tenets of the initiative, which seeks to drive convergence of member companies' responsible sourcing standards.

AIM-PROGRESS looking to the future

As a forum of leading branded consumer goods manufacturers, AIM-PROGRESS has agreed on an ambitious set of objectives to help steer the initiative in the next three years. As CSR continues to find itself higher up the agenda of corporate strategy our members’ commitment to responsible sourcing is on an upward trajectory.

Progress on Responsible Sourcing? Membership survey clearly says so!

AIM-PROGRESS is pleased to announce the release of its third annual member company benchmarking survey. This tool serves as an internal barometer for the AIM-PROGRESS members, providing for free, a wealth of very helpful comparative data in order to drive member companies’ programmes forward.

Cooperation continues between GSCP and AIM-PROGRESS

The Global Social Compliance Program (GSCP) of the Consumer Goods Forum and AIM-PROGRESS are both global initiatives, and are seeking to enhance their cooperation in a number of areas of interest to both organisations.

AIM-PROGRESS strengthens membership criteria

As AIM-PROGRESS continues to mature, the mission to enable and promote responsible sourcing practices stays the same. The level of member company commitment however is something that continues to rise.
