SKIMS began sourcing from the mentioned factory in June 2021 but subsequently ceased operations on April 23, 2022, after being made aware of allegations of the factory forcing employees to work overtime without pay. During our engagement with our supplier, Delta Galil USA, our sourcing team became aware of allegations concerning unpaid overtime to workers. This issue arose during the period when Delta acquired Bogart Companies in 2020. It is important to note that the exit of SKIMS from the factory did not result in the retrenchment of workers. This stability was achieved through Bogart Myanmar's swift response to fill the gap.

without a taint of its own, says Claudia Bennett of the nonprofit Human Rights Foundation. Much of it comes from forced labour in Xinjiang province by the country's ethnic Uyghur minority."One-in-five cotton garments globally is linked to Uyghur forced labour,” Bennett says.In May, the US blocked imports from 26 Chinese cotton traders and warehouses to avoid goods made with Uyghur forced labour. But because the supply chain is so sketchy, Uyghur cotton is used in garments produced in other countries that don't bear the 'made-in-China' label, Bennett says.“Many, many, many clothing brands are linked to Uyghur forced labour through the cotton," she said. They "hide behind the lack of transparency in the supply chain.”Temu scored zero on human rightsWhile China is a global leader in the production of electric cars and electric-powered public transport and has set a goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060, its efforts in promoting fashion sustainability and recycling textiles have taken a back seat.According to a report this year from independent fashion watchdog Remake assessing major clothing companies on their environmental, human rights and equitability practices, there's little accountability among the best-known brands.The group gave Shein, whose online marketplace groups about 6,000 Chinese clothing factories under its label, just 6 out of a possible 150 points. Temu scored zero.Also getting zero were US label SKIMS, co-founded by Kim Kardashian, and low-price brand Fashion Nova.

In addition to its robotics investment, Skims recently blended the convenience of e-commerce with the gratification of in-person shopping by introducing two hour delivery in Los Angeles. This was its first step in modernising the traditional fashion e-commerce supply chain by leveraging “ghost kitchens” and repurposing them as mini-warehouses, allowing Skims to conveniently deliver customers the products they want when they want them.

Insatiable product demand might be a good problem to have but amid supply chain challenges and pandemic uncertainty, Skims needed to fast-track production on consistent restocks to keep up with the growing demand, says CEO and co-founder Jens Grede. In response, the brand has introduced autonomous mobile robots across its fulfilment centres to make its warehouses more efficient, in collaboration with fulfilment provider Radial and robotics company Locus Robotics. Skims joins a handful of fashion and retail companies investing in robotics technology to meet e-commerce demand in the last three years, including Nike, Asos and Uniqlo owner Fast Retailing. However, the industry is still in its infancy and questions remain over the ethics and risks of robotic fulfilment for fashion, especially given the high cost of implementation. Skims was unable to share the size of its investment in robotics.

Grede also told Fortune in August that she offered her staff a cash bonus for using AI long before Cuban’s wake up call.
