Understanding and Staying Responsible in Today’s Changing (and Challenging) Landscape
Room: Mistletoe
What do retailers expect from AGS suppliers regarding ethical and responsible standards related to the supply chain?
Everyone has a different opinion on what ethics and responsibility mean. What do you have to do? What tools and resources are available to guide you? How do you ensure that your business stays on top of requirements (and goes beyond) best practices? As an industry and as AGS suppliers, how do we understand what is ethical and responsible to maintain trust in our clients and the consumer?
Join us for this lively discussion with experts from the Jewelers Vigilance Committee (JVC), as well as other industry experts and suppliers facing these challenges.
