Abstract

In this episode, Prof Peter Lund-Thomsen from CBDS speaks to Faryal Sadiq, Vice-President of Sales and Marketing at Interloop Limited. Interloop is one of the world’s largest hosiery manufacturer and a producer of denim and apparel products, based in Faisalabad, Pakistan employing around 30.000 people. The company has a very active involvement in sustainability and can be considered a giant manufacturer which is part of the broader international trend where giant manufacturers from the global South develop their own broader sustainability agenda – both domestically and internationally.

In this episode, Peter and Faryal discuss Interloop’s work with the creating a new traceability tool (Looptrace). They also address some tough questions regarding whether is indeed a need for such tools, who will benefit from their use (as they involve massive and costly data gathering exercises), and what the future looks like for traceability in this industry.
