7-6-20 – After concern that Levi’s was delaying payments to its suppliers, the company commits to pay factories and garment workers per the original contract terms and extend low-cost financing to others. While Levi’s never outright cancelled orders, it was the concern of PayUp Fashion and the Worker Rights Consortium and other labor rights groups that delays in payments were putting unfair financial stress on factories during a serious economic crisis. This turnaround on the part of Levi’s will have a positive impact on its supply chain.
