Sourcing Session Part 2: SUSTAINABILITY

Friday. April 18 at 9:05am

While sustainability is difficult to define, it has been a corporate buzzword for at least two decades.  Climate change, an increasingly stringent regulatory environment, and added stakeholder pressures are driving the apparel and footwear industries to step up their thinking about creating sustainable supply chains.  Join our panelists as they discuss how your company can benefit by turning environmental challenges into strategic opportunities.

> Sandra Fallgatter, Manager of Private Brand Compliance, JCPenney
